Tree & Plant Care FAQs

Tree and plant care is the proactive management of your landscape’s health through pruning, fertilization, disease prevention, and pest control. Without proper care, trees and shrubs can become weak, diseased, or hazardous, reducing curb appeal and even threatening property safety. Regular care allows your landscape to remain strong, vibrant, and longlasting.

Our certified arborists and plant health specialists begin with a thorough inspection of your trees and shrubs, identifying signs of stress, disease, and unwanted pest activity. From there, we create a customized plan that may include pruning, deep root fertilization, insect and disease treatments, and longterm monitoring to keep your landscape thriving.

Most landscapes benefit from multiple professional care visits throughout the year. Frequency depends on the age, species, and condition of your trees and shrubs. Preventive treatments — such as fertilization or insect control — are seasonally timed to maximize their effectiveness.

You can, but unless you’re a certified arborist, you run the risk of overlooking or misapplying treatments. RYAN Pros are trained to the highest industry standards, using professional equipment and proven techniques to ensure safe, effective results that protect both your plants and your property.

Tree and plant care often includes a combination of pruning, fertilization, and pest or disease management. For example, deep root fertilization strengthens trees from the inside out, while targeted insect and disease treatments protect against common Midwest threats like Emerald Ash Borer or fungal infections.

Clayheavy soils, invasive pests, and harsh seasonal shifts are big concerns here in the Midwest. Our team understands local conditions and plant species, so we know the right timing, products, and techniques to maximize results. Homeowners often see a dramatic difference between DIY efforts and the longterm health and beauty achieved through professional care.

Yes. Even mature trees and established shrubs require regular attention to stay healthy and safe. Annual or seasonal care helps prevent disease, strengthens root systems, and extends the lifespan of your landscape, ensuring it continues to add beauty and value to your property for years to come.

Most pruning is best done during late winter or early spring, when plants are still dormant and before new growth begins. This timing reduces stress on the plant and allows for healthier regrowth. Some species benefit from light summer pruning, especially to remove damaged or diseased branches. Your RYAN Pro can recommend the ideal pruning schedule based on the specific trees and shrubs in your landscape.

Tree removal starts with an inspection to determine the safest way to take the tree down. From there, trained specialists remove the tree in controlled sections using professional equipment, making sure nearby structures and landscaping are protected. Once the tree is down, debris is cleared from the property, and stump grinding can be added if you want the area fully restored.
