Landscape Design and Installation in Florida

When planning your landscape, it is also important to consider your climate, soil type, drainage, exposure (sun and shade), potential use of native plants, water requirements, and types of wildlife, such as deer, that are in your area and more. By incorporating a master plan, you avoid potential problems of having to re-do work, wasting money and time. Landscape professionals can provide consultation, design, and installation expertise in all of these areas. They can also help with information on local building codes, restrictions, and potential maintenance and water cost issues.

A solid landscape design gives your house that all-important curb appeal, but, more importantly, it allows you to find an enjoyable respite just outside the doors of your home. A landscape design theme reflects your preferences and personal style. Plant selections include considerations of size, texture and color. Native plants are good choices for most landscapes because they are adapted to growing in your climate and soil. 

When your project is over a certain size, for best results you should have professional landscape design Services .

Besides a beautiful aesthetic, a professional landscape design helps ensure your property works.

A lot goes into a healthy, efficient landscape that will mature properly. You need to plan for water handling, appropriate sunlight for all your plants, the right mixture of plants that will grow suitably together in the shared soil and ongoing maintenance.

A professional design will take all these factors into consideration and produce a quality design that you will be happy with for the decades to come.

Lawn And OrnamentalTotal Plant Care In Florida

Maintaining a healthy lawn is perhaps the best and easiest way to prevent weed growth — this includes proper mowing and irrigation, fertilizing and pest management regimens applied in concert. Growing and maintaining a healthy, green, and beautiful landscape requires a comprehensive plan designed for your specific soils, plants, and landscape.

In most cases established ornamental plants in the landscape require care to stay healthy and attractive. Regular fertilization, pruning, watering, mulching and pest control are all part of a good landscape management program.

Also; Some plants, such as annual flowers, roses, red-tip photinia and English laurel, are more demanding than others. Annual flowers and roses must be kept well-supplied with nutrients and water at all times, pruned and groomed routinely, and monitored regularly for pests if they are to flower abundantly. Red-tip photinia and English laurel are very susceptible to leaf spot diseases and demand more care.

Having a unified management strategy for an entire property is ideal for both success and value. While an attractive lawn can complement an equally attractive landscaping with trees and shrubs, one that is unkempt and weedy will be a major distraction. Indeed, a good looking lawn is as important to the total landscape picture as a shined pair of dress shoes is to formal attire. The two just naturally go together.

Today, the concept of low-maintenance landscapes is more popular than ever before. The idea of putting less effort into the landscape without sacrificing quality and beauty is very appealing to a growing number of homeowners and clients of landscape professionals. Zimmerman Tree Service provides the full range of services to keep your lawn and ornamental plants in top health and looking great, including everything from landscape design and installation to year round maintenance.

Different plant species may have different nutritional requirements. What is good for one plant may not be good for another. Improper fertilization may be word than no fertilization. Zimmerman Tree Service custom fertilization program will meet the specific needs of your lawn and ornamental plants to ensure your plants optimum health.

Total Plant Health Care In Florida

Plant Health Care – what is it and why is it important to you and your landscape? By definition, plant health care is the proactive approach to maintaining tree, shrub and groundcover health through holistic cultural management and integrated treatments. However, to truly comprehend plant care, we need to look beyond its literal meaning. The secret to understanding plant health care is learning how it is implemented, why it is necessary and what health benefits are gained from its practice. 

Many of the trees and shrubs that we cherish in our landscape are subject to environmental issues or factors such as insects, mites and diseases that compromise their ability to thrive. Our landscape plants may not be native to this part of the world or may be exposed to imported insects and diseases. Most significantly, they are exposed to "people pressures" that create stress. These people pressures include construction, grade change, soil compaction, mechanical injury, over- or under-watering, road salt, and air pollution. In order for plants to thrive and survive, these issues must be addressed. 

Yard care and gardening practices may have positive or negative influence on human health and the neighborhood environment. For example, a turf enhances the environment by converting carbon dioxide into oxygen, increasing water infiltration into the soil and
reducing surface runoff and erosion.Turfs furthermore are essential for reducing dust, providing a microecosystem that effectively breaks down pollutants and moderating summer temperatures.They also create a pleasant “people” space.

On the other hand, lawn care practices negatively influence the environment when grass clippings are mowed or blown onto the street (water quality problem), when fertilizers are over-spread onto hard surfaces, and when the unwarranted use of pesticides occurs.
Several terms (such as Integrated Pest Management, Plant Health Care, Sustainable Farming/Gardening, Best Management Practices and Organic Gardening) are used to describe farming/garden management systems designed to help the farmers/gardener maximize positive effects and minimize negative effects.

Autumn Arborist Service In Florida

Autumn is a great time to fertilize your trees. The primary goal of fall fertilization is to promote healthy root growth. Our plant health technicians can assess your property's needs and devise the right fertilization plan for you. Even after the leaves have fallen from your trees, the roots will continue to grow and utilize the applied fertilizer until soil temperatures have dropped below 40°F, often well into November or December here in Florida.

Late in the summer many diseased trees began prematurely dropping leaves. Diseased leaves on the ground as well as infected branches on the tree are a call to action. Bacteria and fungi (plant pathogens) will survive on branches and fallen twigs as well as leaves throughout the winter. Debris, if left till spring, will be a pathogen source for 2016.
This year, it is especially important to clean your beds and lawns of fallen leaves and associated debris. This does not mean that you have to pick up the leaves when they fall; these leaves will be suitable for composting. However it is important that your leaves don’t stick around until next spring.

Once your landscape is bare of leaves, pruning needs will be much more evident. These needs include dead branches, broken branches as well as those weakened by plant pathogens. Fall is the very best time to prune. Why? One word; energy. Trees and shrubs have the most stored-up energy in the cambium than any other time of the year. Stored energy is important as this is the tree’s defense against decay entering pruning wounds. Freshly cut wood won’t attract bark beetles and borers that come to infest and spread additional diseases; as these wood boring insects have already become dormant for the winter season.

Make time now to clean up your beds and lawn before the winter cold sets in. For large trees or projects beyond your expertise, now is the time to schedule work with your tree care company (arborist). Book work now and it can be completed anytime during the fall and winter. Fall deep root fertilization allows tree and shrub roots to receive the nutrients and apply it to functions such as root development and disease resistance, rather than promoting new growth. Furthermore, the excess nutrients are stored in the roots and are immediately available for new spring growth.

It is important to implement a fertilization program not only for growth purposes, but for the overall health and stamina of your trees and shrubs. If deep root fertilization is not already a part of your routine program; we would be happy to discuss the benefits in detail with you and create a customized fertilization plan for your landscape.
