Why Regular Trimming Matters

Shrubs and hedges are more than just background plants. They create privacy, define spaces, and add structure to your landscape. But without regular trimming, they can quickly become overgrown, messy, and unhealthy. Trimming keeps your shrubs looking neat while promoting healthy growth and preventing disease.

In Burbank, where curb appeal matters and HOAs often have landscaping standards, well-maintained shrubs and hedges make a big difference. Our professional trimming service keeps your landscape looking its best all year long. Regular trimming also prevents shrubs from blocking windows, growing into walkways, or causing other problems on your property.

When to Trim Shrubs and Hedges

Timing your trimming makes a big difference in plant health and appearance. Most shrubs benefit from trimming 2 to 3 times per year. Spring trimming shapes the plant before new growth starts. Summer trimming controls size and removes excess growth. Fall trimming prepares plants for winter dormancy.

Flowering shrubs have special timing requirements. Spring-blooming shrubs should be trimmed right after flowering, while summer and fall bloomers can be trimmed in early spring. If you are not sure when to trim your specific plants, we can advise you. Regular trimming is easier and less stressful for plants than severe cutting every few years. Just like with tree trimming, consistent maintenance keeps plants healthier and looking better.

Benefits of Professional Trimming

You might think trimming shrubs is something you can do yourself, and for small jobs that is often true. But larger hedges, tall shrubs, and formal shapes require proper tools, technique, and experience. Professional trimming creates clean, even results that last longer and look better.

We use sharp, professional equipment that makes clean cuts without tearing or damaging plant tissue. This helps plants heal faster and reduces disease risk. We also know how much to trim without harming the plant or ruining its shape. When you hire us, you save time and effort while getting professional results. If you also need help with larger plants, we offer tree health and maintenance services to keep your entire landscape in top condition.
