Is your garden looking overgrown and unruly? Proper trimming and pruning are essential for maintaining the health, shape, and vitality of your shrubs, hedges, and trees. At Small Brother Lawn Mowing Service, we provide skilled trimming and pruning services across Melbourne’s South-Eastern suburbs, ensuring your plants don’t just survive—they thrive.
Trimming vs. Pruning: Knowing the Difference
While often used interchangeably, they serve different purposes for your garden’s health:
- Trimming (Shaping): Primarily for hedges and shrubs. We focus on maintaining a neat shape, controlling size, and encouraging dense, lush growth. It’s about aesthetics and form.
- Pruning (Health): Primarily for trees, shrubs, and roses. We carefully select and remove dead, diseased, or overgrown branches to improve plant health, stimulate fruit/flower production, and allow for better air and light penetration.
Our Careful Trimming & Pruning Process
We don’t just cut—we care for your plants. Our process ensures the best results:
- Assessment: We examine each plant to determine its type, health, and the best approach for trimming or pruning.
- The Right Cut: Using sharp, clean tools, we make precise cuts at the correct angles to promote fast healing and prevent disease.
- Shape & Health: We strategically trim for a tidy shape and prune to remove problematic branches, always respecting the plant’s natural form.
- Clean-Up: We remove all green waste from your property, leaving your garden tidy and refreshed.
Benefits of Professional Trimming & Pruning:
- Encourages Healthy Growth: Redirects the plant’s energy to stronger branches and new growth.
- Prevents Disease: Removes dead or dying branches that can attract pests and fungi.
