Maintenance

 

Fertilizing
All plants are fertilized at time of installation. They do not need to be refertilized for 3 months.

When the 3 months have passed, all plants should be fertilized with a high quality fertilizer containing micro nutrients. Minimum specs. should be 6-6-6 or 8-8-8.

Palms should be fertilized with high quality palm fertilizer. The palm fertilizer should have high percentages of manganese, magnesium and iron. Fertilize per manufacturers' instructions.

Fertilization should be done every 60 days unless otherwise suggested.

Milorganite should be applied to all material in the spring and fall.

The same schedule applies to lawn fertilizing. We suggest a high quality weed and feed in the spring and fall along with milorganite and a high quality turf fertilizer every 60 days.

A spray program should be established for shrubs and lawns. It is recommended that the lawn be sprayed monthly with a fungicide and insecticide. Shrubs should be sprayed at least monthly from November through March and twice per month or as needed during the rest of the year.

Pruning
Plants should be pruned or trimmed between March 15th and April I5, as needed for the rest of the year to create the effect desired for homeowners specific landscape design.
