Richmond Shrub & Hedge Trimming Services: Richmond, VA

Your shrubs and hedges are an important part of your property’s aesthetic and curb appeal, but it can be challenging to keep them maintained. Let Green Side Up Landscaping handle the hassle with hedge trimming services in Richmond to keep your plants vibrant and tidy all year.

Benefits of Pruning

Healthier Plant Growth

Regular pruning removes dead or diseased branches before they become a problem. Plus, pruning improves air circulation and sunlight exposure so plants grow stronger and healthier. Our team of experts knows how to trim your plants so they thrive and remain resilient against pests and diseases.

New Bloom Production

When you prune matters just as much as how. Pruning too early can prevent blooms and new growth, so we adjust our trimming schedule to suit the shrubs and trees in your garden to keep them gorgeous during peak blooming periods.

Shape Maintenance

Whether you have a basic hedgerow or sculpted topiaries, pruning helps your shrubs maintain their shape and keeps them from looking overgrown. Our hedge pruning services will reflect your aesthetic preferences and keep your hedges pristine.

Protection from Damage

Overgrown branches can cause damage to your trees by rubbing or snapping off during storms. We’ll keep your trees trimmed and pruned by removing weak or hazardous growth so both your plants and property are protected from damage.

  • Tailored care to keep your specific plant varieties happy and healthy.
  • Consistent service to maintain your landscape’s year-round beauty.

We’ve developed a pruning schedule that works best for our Central Virginia climate and the plants that grow here.

  • January-March: We prune roses, crepe myrtles, liriope (lilyturf), and other common shrubs and plants while they are dormant. We’ll also do any corrective pruning that’s needed during this season, such as removing diseased branches.
  • April-July: During this season, we prune from the spring flush of growth and work hard to make sure we prune only the things that need to be pruned.
  • August-September: Over the late summer months, we’ll prune as needed to keep your plants healthy and beautiful while they’re still growing.
  • October-December: We prune in the fall to clean up summer perennials and remove any spent growth or dead branches to protect the plant and your property from damage during winter snow and ice events.

Our third time out with GSU in a little over a years. This time replanting the front yard after clearing an overgrown flower bed in November 2021. Ivan and the GSU crew were their usual fantastic selves. On time and very detailed.The GSU process, through their web site, takes all the guesswork out of the process. Scheduling an appointment was easy. Our design consultant was helpful in suggesting the plants to select.We give them a solid "10".Update, January 2024. Mulching was perfect. Dominic and crew exceeded our expectations. Another 10! Thank you.

We worked with Bill and his team on a lawn renovation project that included treating existing weeds, installing irrigation, and laying sod. Bill was responsive throughout the process and he and his team did did an excellent job. We're very happy with how the yard looks now and would recommend Green Side Up Landscaping for anyone in the Richmond area.

When we moved into our house, the yard had not been maintained for quite some time. In the front of our house, there were nandina that had spread like wildfire. There was a tree stump that had been to about 3-4 feet from the ground and branches had started growing from it. There was another tree that look like it came from a sapling and let grow as it pleased. I took out some holly bushes, but it still needed a lot of work. We hired GSU, they came out, removed everything, planted some plants, and laid sod. It looked amazing!!When they were grinding the stumps, they accidentally hit the cover to our water meter. However, this was not their fault because whoever marked the utilities did not mark the water meter. They even called the utility company, or whoever gives the ok to grind stumps/dig/etc, and they said everything had been marked and they could proceed. The city came out to replace the water meter cover and I guess they had to dig up whatever was around the water meter and install a new one. When doing this, they did not care what it looked like before or after. They dug up our new sod, placed the new water meter cover, then threw dirt around it. I sent GSU a message with pictures and they came out the next day to fix it. They didn't charge me anything additional. Because of their customer service and quality of work, they have a lifelong customer. I highly recommend using GSU for all your landscape needs.
