Irrigation Installation, Service & Repairs
We are performing the Sprinkler System Checks & Repair services. You should have your irrigation set to run 4-5 days per week, 10 minutes on pop-up zones and 20-25 minutes on rotating zones. Give us a call if you are ready to get on the schedule. If you are interested in having an irrigation system installed, please give the office a call at 913-829-6135.

Turf Maintenance
We are applying Round 5 of our 7 Round Turf Program. Round 5 is a liquid application targeting nutsedge, broadleaf, and grassy weeds in the lawn. Turf Managers will also assess lawns at this time to determine if and what is needed as far as a Fall Lawn Renovation. Aeration, verticutting and overseeding being the common items to be done in order to keep the lawn full and thick. If you are interested in starting your personalized turf health plan please give us a call.

Plant Health Care
We are currently applying Round 3 of our plant insecticide program for the 2017 season. Round 3 is a treatment to control primarily spider mites on spruce, junipers and burning bush. Please call to schedule a consultation with one of our certified Arborist today.

Mowing Service
The mowing season has begun and will run weekly from now until the end of October. Due to the rainy weather they may be behind a day or two but will work weekends to catch up. If you are interested in the weekly mowing service, please contact the office.

Another Drought…seriously??

Just when we thought we'd pulled out of the drought, we've sunk back in…Don't count on the weatherman's predictions of rain because it's not happening!!  Turf and Trees are really starting to stress especially considering they've just barely recovered from the last drought.  Please make sure you're watering turfgrass a minimum of 4-5 days per week with your irrigation systems.  Remember, Irrigation is not sufficient for watering trees!!  Trees, even mature trees must be deeply watered a minimum of 1-2 days per week in drought periods.  Deep watering means to saturate around the entire tree for at least 1 hour at a slow trickle.  I recommend placing your hose approx. 3-4' out from the base of the tree and letting it run for 30 minutes, then move your hose to the other side of the tree and run for another 30 minutes.  Please feel free to call us if you have any questions pertaining to watering methods, etc…
