	SHRUB & LAWN SERVICES You won't believe the difference! LAWN AERATION Removing small cores of soil from your lawn reduces soil compaction and promotes root growth for healthier grass! What is Aeration? Aeration is the naturally occurring process of air exchange between the soil and its surrounding atmosphere. Practically speaking, aeration is the process of mechanically removing small plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn to improve natural soil aeration. It is commonly called "core aeration" in the lawn service industry and you may have heard of it as coring, spiking. (Charge by the square foot. Call for price) LAWN OVERSEEDING (Spring/Summer/Fall) Gives your lawn thicker growth, better color and greater resistance to disease and drought. What is overseeding? Over seeding is the planting of seed directly into existing turf, without tearing up the turf or the soil. It fills in bare spots and improves the density of turf and enhances the lawn's color. A perfect candidate for over seeding is when a lawn is old, looks worn out and it needs growing amounts of water and fertilizer to thrive. Is disease or insect prone. (Charge by the square foot.

Why Use Mulch?
A 1 to 2-inch layer of mulch covering the soil surface will cool the soil and help it retain moisture. In fact, soil that's one inch below a layer of mulch can be up to 13 degrees cooler than unmulched soil at the same depth. Mulch reduces weed growth and organic mulch improves the fertility of the soil as it decomposes. It also prevents hardening of the soil surface, allowing water to penetrate to the root zone. Finally, the dark color and uneven surface of mulch limits reflectivity. Sand and clay soils can be highly reflective and bounce heat and light up onto plants. The fragmented surface of mulch reduces reflectivity and cools the adjacent area. Shredded or chipped bark or compost make excellent mulches and will help you conserve water.
