We provide the tools, vehicles, treatments, high bloom fertilizers and waste bags that can remain outside for thirty days without falling apart.
Gardening Season
Our season starts the first week of April and ends no later than mid-November; after final leaf drop. Weather dependent, we do our best to ensure you get the same time slot each visit often timed for city waste removal. Waste can be removed completely from your site at an additional charge.
Through the eight month season, we offer weekly, bi-weekly or monthly services, with varying fees associated at each level. These services include a free evaluation of your garden by mid-June, offering suggestions regarding overall improvement, succession of bloom and fullness.
The quantities used vary by site so treatments, waste bags and fertilizers are charged separately.
Payment is by Visa or Master Card on the day the service is delivered or by monthly pre-paid post-dated cheques. A significant discount is available for full season pre-payment.
