The Southeast's Best Plant & Shrub Care

Your ornamental plants and shrubs are an investment. Canvas protects that investment with expert monitoring, targeted treatments, and seasonal programs that keep your landscape truly healthy, not just looking good.

Plant & Shrub Care Services

Most lawn care companies treat plants and shrubs as an afterthought. Canvas treats them as a critical part of your property's health and value. Our certified technicians go beyond surface-level inspection. They assess root health, soil nutrition, pest pressure, and disease risk to build a treatment plan that addresses what's actually happening with your plants.

Deep Root Fertilization

Slow-release nutrients delivered directly to the root zone for healthier, more vigorous growth in trees and ornamental shrubs.

Insect & Pest Control for Ornamentals

Targeted treatments for scale insects, aphids, spider mites, lace bugs, and other common pests that damage ornamental plants.

Disease Prevention & Treatment

Identification and treatment of fungal and bacterial diseases including powdery mildew, fire blight, and leaf spot.

New Planting Health Assessments

Professional evaluation of recently planted trees and shrubs to catch early health issues before they become serious.

Seasonal Pruning Recommendations

Expert guidance on timing and technique to maximize plant health, flowering, and long-term structure.

Healthy Plants Start Underground

The most common mistake homeowners make is treating visible symptoms without addressing root causes. The Southeast's clay-heavy soils, high humidity, and seasonal temperature swings create specific stresses for ornamental plants, and treating the wrong problem wastes money while the real issue gets worse.

Common Problem What It Looks Like
Scale insects, spider mites, lace bugs & aphids Sticky residue, yellowing leaves, distorted growth, or a sooty coating on foliage, often discovered only after significant feeding damage.
Powdery mildew, fire blight & leaf spot White powdery coating, blackened branch tips, or brown spotting on leaves. Fungal diseases spread quickly in the Southeast's warm, humid conditions.
Soil compaction & drainage issues Clay-heavy Southeastern soils compact easily around root zones, causing nutrient deficiency and root stress even when surface conditions look fine.
