What we trim

  • HedgesViburnum, ligustrum, podocarpus, ficus and the other privacy hedges common around Mount Dora.
  • Foundation shrubsCut back off the siding, windows and AC unit so the house can breathe.
  • Flowering shrubsAzaleas, gardenias, ixora and hibiscus, each trimmed at the right time of year.
  • WalkwaysAnything reaching into the sidewalk, the driveway or the path to the door.

Timing, so you don’t cut off the flowers

The easiest way to lose a spring azalea bloom is to trim at the wrong time. Azaleas set next year’s buds in summer, so they’re shaped right after they finish flowering in spring, not in the fall. Gardenias follow the same rule. Hibiscus and ixora bloom on new growth and handle a trim through the warm months.

Privacy hedges grow almost year-round here. Most need shaping every six to eight weeks in the growing season to stay tight.

Shape the hedge, don’t shear it flat

A hedge cut wider at the bottom than the top gets light all the way down and stays full. One that’s sheared straight, or wider at the top, goes bare at the base within a couple of years. It’s a small difference in how the trimmer is held, and it’s the difference between a wall of green and a row of sticks.

Add it to your mowing or book it on its own

Hedge trimming can ride along with a regular mowing visit every few weeks, or be booked once or twice a year. Either way, the trimmings are bagged and hauled off.

Right after they finish blooming in spring. Trimming later in the year cuts off the buds that make next spring’s flowers.
Most privacy hedges here need shaping every six to eight weeks from spring through fall, and much less in winter.
We trim small ornamental trees and branches we can reach safely from the ground. Big limbs over a roof or power lines need a tree service.
