Heavy snow can damage branches....using a broom, gently push UP on branches to knock off snow.  If it's a weeping tree, then it's okay to gently brush downwards....

About Us

What Your Personal Gardeners do for your garden:

bulletHand weed - nothing beats it for neat, chemical-free flower beds. 
bulletDeadhead - removing fading flowers from your annuals and perennials will keep your garden looking fresh, and encourages new flowers to bloom
bulletDivide perennials - most perennials benefit from division every three to five years.  We can take care of this tiresome task for you.  The result?  Healthier, less crowded living conditions for your plants.
bulletSoil tests - Healthy plants start with healthy soil.  We'll have your beds analyzed for the specific type of plants growing in them.  You'll get a copy of the soil test report so you can see exactly what's needed to revitalize your garden.
bulletFertilize - Stop wasting money on fertilizers you don't need.  We'll apply just the right type and amount of fertilizer required for your garden, as recommended by your soil test.
bulletVacation Service - We'll water and weed while you're out of town so your plants will still be alive when you return!
bulletWe recycle clippings whenever possible, so they decompose naturally, rather than going to a landfill.

    No cookie cutter contracts required.  Need us once a week, once a month or once a season?  We'll be there to give you a garden you'll be proud to come home to.  Our maintenance fee is $35 per hour, per gardener.  Ask about our special prices for regular weekly or monthly service.

    We do garden maintenance in the eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh, PA - including Murrysville, Delmont, Export, Harrison City, Greensburg, Monroeville, Edgewood, Shadyside, Fox Chapel, O'Hara Twp. and Oakmont.
