Important information to further protect your plants and Palm Trees.

🌴✂️ Hold Off on the Trimmers! ✂️🌴

Cold weather damage can be tricky here in Florida. Before you start cutting, keep this in mind:

✅ Palm Trees:
👉 Wait until early March to trim palms. Cutting too early can stress the tree and expose it to future cold snaps.

✅ Shrubs & Hedges:
👉 Wait until late February before trimming back any shrubs with freeze or frost damage. This allows hidden damage to fully show and protects new growth.

Patience now = healthier, better-looking landscapes all season long 🌱
