Services for Pruning
Pruning is another important component of landscape upkeep that must be done on a regular basis.
For the 20 past years, Hillside Lawn Care and Landscape Maintenance teams have supplied landscaping services, including pruning, throughout Southwest Oregon, including Melrose, Winston, and Wilbur. Using the necessary skills and equipment, our workers can carefully trim all of your plant material, including decorative trees, shrubs, formal hedges, and flowering perennials. We also have the expertise to guarantee that pruning work is done at the appropriate time of year for our Oregon climate.
Depending on the types of shrub needing trimmed and pruned, the best time to cut your hedges is winter or early spring. For example, evergreen shrub and privet hedges is best pruned at early spring. If you prune bushes before or shortly after the new growth starts, it will give a foundation for shaping the plant while maintaining its natural appearance.
Because we want to allow most plants to grow and remain in their natural shape, which is when they are most beautiful, we prune with hand pruners and hand loppers and we try to make sure the tops of the hedge are pruned in late winter or early spring . Hedge trimmers are only used on sheared, formal plant specimens; they are never used on non-formal shrubs. The following are some common landscape plantings that require regular pruning:
- Grasses for decoration
- Ground coverings such as liriope and others
- Hydrangeas
- Crape Myrtle is a kind of crape myrtle that grows in
- Knockout Roses, are a type of rose.

Know The Best Way To hedge Trim Your Shrubbery
Hedge trimming is a necessary task to hedge maintenance. Trimming a hedge requires you to cut branches so that they are straight so that they will not grow back. This will encourage new growth as well as making sure that the old one will not get out of control. It is also used to beautify the landscape and reduce noise.
Professional hedge trimming is not for everyone, though. It requires average skill so that pruning can be done properly. Now that hedge trimming has become an art, it has become more expensive as well. If you've noticed how beautiful different shapes of shrubs were formed when you have seen how these plants were being pruned, you'll only admire how well these experts managed to achieve this. It takes average skill to do this, which is why the average cost of doing this job is so much.
For many people, pruning is done on an annual basis. In summer, they use hedges that have not been pruned. These plants are chosen according to what direction the sun is shining in so that the grass will grow in that direction. In winter, however, they trim plants that have been in sunlight the whole year-round. This way, grass, and bushes won't growing overgrown and therefore will not attract insects.
If there's nothing in your lawn that could make a good cut, you can try using a hedge trimmer to achieve that. You should know that this tool is made out of very sharp blades and is therefore likely to injure any creatures that come into contact with it. The other way to perform hedge trimming is to use pruning shears. This comes with a double blade and is therefore ideal for cutting overgrown branches and pruning small trees. Both of these tools are quite expensive, so if you're on a tight budget, it's best if you use hedge trimming tools that are available at your local hardware store.
The other type of hedge trimming is performed by using bush trimming shears. This is the safest method as long as you don't cut the foliage of the plants you're pruning as well. The reason why is because when the blades of this safety equipment are used, it doesn't just cut the foliage but also removes the unwanted branches. This is the best way to remove too many branches without damaging the plant. There are many models of bush trimming shears that you can buy from any hardware store, so find one that matches your needs and start trimming those bushes now.
