"The forests of the future may very well be our Urban Forests" ~ Paul Vanden Engel
"There has perhaps never been a greater focus on urban trees and green spaces as we strive to make our cities more resilient, healthy, and vibrant." ~ Dr. Cecil Konijnendijk
Plant Health Care Consultations
Trees are one of the most valuable living things in the environments we create for ourselves. Your certified arborist will educate you about your trees with invaluable information; for example, how a species will respond to each cut when pruning. Proper arboriculture pruning techniques and knowledge of tree biology all play an important role in providing the right plant health care program for your trees.

Tree Fertility
Healthy trees start in the soil. Trees in urban environments simply don’t have access to the same amounts of biomass (nutrient-rich soils) as trees in the natural forest. By adding fertility to a tree’s root zone at the right time of year, you will see the results in the growth and health of a tree. Adding a mulch layer will also benefit. Planting a new tree in hard packed soil? Amend the soil and add organic matter to improve soil structure. "Watch it grow"!

Hazards
Risk Assessments
Before resorting to removing a tree, allow a certified Arborist to assess its health and condition. We will recommend a solution that is the safest for you and your property while keeping the health of the tree in mind.
Cabling and Bracing
(Cobra Support System)
Worried about unsafe trees? If structural pruning has not been done throughout the tree’s life, often we are left with unsafe branching patterns that run a risk of breaking off.
Our team can assess and tell you if a Cobra Support System can be installed in a tree, to prevent large limbs from breaking off and causing property damage - or worse. You have a "special tree"?
Tree branch bracing may be another solution to help preserve some of the greatest assests on your property - trees.

Tree Pruning
Training young trees for Structure and Form. Simply, by training a young trees structure through proper pruning techniques in the winter, a maturing to mature tree remains in tact longer, serving as a functional component of the Urban Forest. Midigating storm damage for your trees. Have your certified arborist assess your tree canopy. By reducing the 'sail' in a trees canopy, pruning techniques using specialized equipment can be applied to minimize the potential for failure during increasingly severe wind, ice and snow loads. As a last resort, our trained Tree Care team can safely fell and remove a tree and grind that stump from your property. But remember to... "Plant a tree for your tomorrow" ... planting a new tree to replace the removed tree will maintain our commitment to ensuring a sustainable furture for living with the many benefits of trees.

"Shades of Green Landscapes is amazing! We needed a rockscape to protect our house from uncontrolled traffic destroying our yard. Shades of Green came right out, were very respectful of what we wanted and kept to their budget and ours. They created a design in keeping with our lifestyle and needs and did a fantastic job! Alyssa was there for us all the way through the project. Their expertise in engineering cleared up an existing water problem that affected our house, as well as providing suggestions to make our yard work better for us. We are so grateful to Paul and Steven for their professionalism, excellent advice and superb work. I would not hesitate to call them back and certainly would offer my highest recommendation of their work to others. They also strive to achieve what their clients want. Today, it is rare to find a team like that. BRAVO to everyone at Shades of Green Landscapes! I wish you a long and prosperous future! "

"I have so much to say about Paul, Stephen and their team. I have had the best experience working with Go Shades of Green. They were reliable, on time, creative, take pride in their work, responsive to my changes and requests, clear about pricing, informative and are hard workers. They helped out when other contractors wouldn't so that my project was finished well. We had a decently large project with lots of rocks, steps, dirt, plants, decks etc. I could envision in my mind the expansive changes I wanted to see and I was so excited that Paul took my vision, with his own flare and created it exactly how I had hoped. Our lake front home looks completely different yet exactly how it should because the design was made to look as if Mother Nature created the landscape herself. Thank you Paul and Stephen for your excellence. "

"Shades of Green Landscapes is a family owned business and was referred to us by a reputable contractor. We initially met with Alyssa, the landscape designer. After a few discussions she presented us with design plan incorporating our expectations as well as her own ideas. Next step was done by Stephen and Luke who worked steadily and timely to transform our outside space. Using their experience and artistic talent they were able to complete the landscape plan. Last step was the lighting done by Paul which finished our project with a very professional look. The end result turned out far beyond our expectations. We would highly recommend this company as they were reliable, knowledgeable and just an absolute pleasure to work with. "
