The Prestige Chemical Spray and Fertilization Program for Ornamental Landscapes
Our Shrub and Tree care program consist of 6 visits. The initial
application is a spring fertilization, followed by 4 insect, mite and disease suppression
applications finishing with a fall fertilization.
Prestige does not offer pruning, planting or landscape planning services.
Our spring fertilizer mix is a complete fertilizer with a mixture of fast and slow
release nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium and micronutrients. Our Fall mix
consists of bio-organic additives such as kelp and cytokinins along with potassium
for over wintering and special adjuvants to enhance soil penetration. We primarily
use a drench technique to apply these nutrient mixtures but in some instances we
do inject the material into the soil.
Our insect, mite and disease control programs are based on an Integrated
Plant Health Maintenance program. We use fungicides, miticides and insecticides
judiciously so as to minimize the amount of pesticide used on your property. We
further reduce pesticide use by targeting only certain plants and knowing which
pests we will encounter at each visit. By improving the health and vigor of the
plants we reduce their susceptibility to pest attack thereby reducing the need for
high doses of pesticides.
Program costs vary depending on the size of your planting and types of plants.
The minimum cost per application is $85.00 ($510.00 per year for the
six treatment program). A free analysis of your landscape will be conducted to determine
the actual cost of your program.
