Honoring our fallen...




SecureTurf honors our fallen soldiers.

To all of our fallen hero's families we honor you. We sincerely appreciate your loved one's ultimate sacrifice and fight for our freedom. Memorial Day, an American holiday observed on the last Monday of May, honors men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military. Originally known as Decoration Day, it originated in the years following the Civil War and became an official federal holiday in 1971. Many Americans observe Memorial Day by visiting cemeteries or memorials, holding family gatherings and participating in parades. Unofficially, at least, it marks the beginning of summer.
Please be safe and enjoy your holiday weekend.

Last Call For Crepe Myrtle & Rose Pruning - SecureTurf

summer02-bottom.jpg


It's last call for Crepe Myrtle and Rose Pruning

Let SecureTurf trim your trees for optimal plant health.
Time is running out... just a few weeks left.

Spring buds come quickly and then it's too late for trimming and pruning. 

December through February is the best time of the year to prune trees 
and trim shrubs. Once cold weather has set in and the plants have 
hardened for winter, you can safely prune, limb and trim without hurting the plant.

Before After Crape
Three things that would prevent trimming or pruning:

A tree or shrub has visible flowers. 
A tree or shrub has a visible buds. 
A tree or shrub has brand new foliage.

Cutting off the top of a crepe myrtle has become a wide spread way to prune 
for most homeowners and is not always recommended. Most people believe 
that heavy chopping is necessary to promote flowers and some cut the top 
off because the plant is too large for the space provided.  There are some 
instances in which heavy pruning is necessary, but light pruning is usually 
all that is needed. The type and amount of pruning depends on the desired 
shape and size of the plant, contact us at SecureTurf with any questions.

Rose pruning brings out the best in both appearance and performance. 
While shrub roses, such as the Knock Out are sometimes touted as being 
carefree, remember, all flowering shrubs are revitalized by proper pruning 
practices, and the Knock Out rose is no different. 
Pruning improves the health of the bush and the quality of the blooms.

When should you prune? Rose pruning should be done just as buds 
break dormancy, usually around mid-to-late February through 
mid-March in our area.

If you are not sure if you can trim or prune, we can assist you. 
In the spring your trees can look like these trees below.
