Hedging & Pruning

Few regular maintenance tasks have as profound an impact on a property as expert hedging and pruning. These services are often the most demanding to execute, yet the results are transformative.  A clean-cut, bold hedge makes a powerful statement about the property that lasts for months or years, whereas one that has been mismanaged can actually decrease the entire property value indefinitely.  Pruning can propel blossoms and fruit as well as shape the future form and focal points.When done poorly, it risks ruining years of growth, compromising privacy, wasting effort, and creating entry points for disease that can ultimately kill the plant.

Pride in our work. 

It’s often difficult to tell who is more satisfied with the finished “sculpture”: us or our clients. This is an area where we find a large part of our passion and job satisfaction. This translates into flowing forms or sharp edged gems that speak for themselves and speak to our clients. Not all pruning is the same. At Green Distinction we provide comprehensive training on plant specific pruning and techniques for each of our staff so that your plants are pruned for their maximum benefit. From pruning fruit trees for high yield, to training plants along an espalier or archway, to topiary or a zen style, we have you covered.

The Green Distinction

Beyond our skill and experience, our unique service quality is driven by the field notes we maintain. We write up detailed notes for all major hedges, focal points, and high-value plantings. These notes are reviewed and added to year after year, prior to each work cycle. This process allows us to monitor progress, and deliver precisely customized service for you and your plants.
