Customer Testimonials
“Let me say that Vassar's association with SavATree has been very positive and we are achieving great success in managing our campus trees in terms of safety and aesthetics.

“Your tree crew (a father and two sons) just finished removing two trees, and pruning another on my property. They were extremely neat and professional, making sure that everything was they way they found it. I could not be more satisfied. I definitely plan on using your company for any future tree work on my property, and will also heartily recommend you to anyone I know needing your services.”

“Efficient, high quality, professional competence — all at a competitive sum. At first [Alison] Pottage won me over by her solid knowledge as an arborist, then the crew did their job to her specifications on our 60 to 70 foot oaks within a remarkable period of time -- and left the grounds quite clean.”

An arborist with shrub care expertise can enhance the beauty of your plantings and maximize the visual impact of flowering shrubs in spring and summer, colorful foliage during autumn and the contrast of uniquely textured bark and vibrant evergreen berries against the pale backdrop of winter. If you have neglected your shrubs for a period of time, expert shrub care will help rejuvenate your plants and provide the visual effect of a dramatic landscape "makeover."
Fertilizing with an organic shrub fertilizer that is specially blended to enhance the health and vigor of woody plants will help them stay beautiful and fend off infestation from opportunistic insects and diseases that take hold of plants when they are weak. ArborHealth™ is an organic shrub fertilizer that replenishes essential nutrients and provides the nourishment needed to sustain health throughout the season.
Professional shrub pruning to provide shape, remove dead limbs and trim damaged branches will give your plantings a distinct form and clean appearance that naturally compliments the architecture of your home and adds character to the design of your landscape. In addition to preserving beauty, pruning by shrub care professionals will help prevent damage and breakage.
Shrub Care Winterization with Antidessicant
Shrub care in preparation of winter is just as important as in-season maintenance, especially for new plantings. Exposure to extreme temperatures, strong winds, heavy snow and ice storms can have a significant negative effect on your shrubs. Creating shelters or wind screens for deciduous flowering shrubs and susceptible evergreens is a very effective, but unsightly, form of protection from moisture depleting weather conditions. If you are interested in a fall and winter shrub care plan that offers protection without the eyesore, ask your arborist about antidessicant.
Shrub care winterization with antidessicant will help defend your trees against the effects of snow, wind and ice. ArborGuard®, a SavATree exclusive, is a natural polymer antidessicant that helps plants such as azalea, boxwood, rhododendron, holly and yew to retain moisture during the winter months. It also helps prevent sunscald and windburn.
Shrub Care Specialties
Shrub care for foundation plantings, trimming hedgerows for privacy and/or security, and pruning of feature flowering shrubs such as roses, requires special shrub care knowledge, artistry and experience. Whether you are looking for a natural aesthetic or more formal appearance, it is important to hire a shrub care professional that is familiar with the appropriate timing, staging and techniques needed to deliver results that match your expectations and personal style.
