Tree & Shrub Care by Green Again Lawn

Trees and shrubs are the backbone of any landscape, providing beauty, structure, and long-term value to your property. But unlike grass, these plants require specialized care to stay healthy and resilient through all seasons.

At Green Again Lawn, we offer a comprehensive Tree & Shrub Care Program for residential, commercial, and HOA properties across Shawnee, Overland Park, Lenexa, and surrounding Kansas areas. Our services are built on more than a decade of experience and tailored to the specific threats your trees and shrubs face—from nutrient deficiencies and drought stress to insect infestations and fungal disease.

Complete Tree & Shrub Health Program – 4 Annual Applications

Our Tree & Shrub Care Program includes four strategically timed applications throughout the year, ensuring your landscape plants get the nourishment and protection they need to thrive.

1. Dormant Oil Application (Early Spring)

This treatment is essential for eliminating overwintering insects and mites before they wake up and begin feeding. Dormant oil suffocates pests like spider mites and aphids while preparing your trees and shrubs for the season ahead.

2. Insecticide + Fungicide Spray (Late Spring)

As temperatures rise, so do the threats. This dual-application protects against:

• Japanese beetles
• Bagworms
• Pine tip moths
• Cedar-apple rust
• Anthracnose
• Other common Kansas fungal diseases

The treatment forms a barrier on foliage and stems, providing early protection when your plants are most vulnerable.

3. Insecticide + Fungicide Spray (Mid-Summer)

This mid-season follow-up reinforces protection from insects and disease. By doubling down on these defenses, your trees and shrubs stay guarded during the most active months for pests and pathogens.

4. Fall Fertilizer (Soil Injection)

Before winter dormancy, we inject a deep root fertilizer into the soil. This helps replenish nutrients lost during the summer and promotes strong root development for the upcoming spring. Healthy roots mean stronger, more resilient trees and shrubs.

Targeted Insect Control for Trees & Shrubs

Some of the most destructive landscape pests can wreak havoc if left unchecked. That’s why we offer targeted insect control as part of our program—and in certain cases, as standalone treatments.

Common Pests We Treat:

• Bagworms: These pests strip foliage from evergreens and shrubs, leaving them brown and brittle.
• Japanese Beetles: Known for skeletonizing leaves, they can weaken plants fast.
• Mites: Often invisible until the damage is done, mites cause stippling and yellowing.
• Emerald Ash Borers: A major threat to ash trees in the Midwest.
• Pine Tip Moths: Cause browning of branch tips and slow growth.

How We Treat Them:

• Dormant Oil (for mites and soft-bodied insects)
• High-Quality Insecticide Sprays (for beetles, bagworms, and borers)
• Strategic Timing (to intercept pests before they cause lasting damage)

We combine prevention and treatment strategies so that your landscape doesn’t just survive pest season—it thrives through it.

Proven Disease Protection for Landscape Plants

Kansas landscapes are no strangers to plant diseases—especially during humid spring and summer months. That’s why two of our four treatments are dedicated to fungal prevention and control.

Diseases We Target:

• Cedar-Apple Rust: Causes unsightly orange or rust-colored spots on leaves
• Anthracnose: Leads to browning and premature leaf drop
• Pine Tip Blight: Affects new growth, weakening conifers and evergreens

Treatment Details:

• Fungicides are sprayed during peak fungal activity windows (late spring & summer)
• Soil-injected fertilizers help boost the plant’s natural defense system against disease

The result: greener foliage, fewer signs of disease, and less premature dieback.

Application Methods: Spray & Soil Injection

We use a combination of foliar spray applications and soil injection techniques depending on the treatment and season.

• Sprays are ideal for delivering insecticides and fungicides directly to plant surfaces, creating a protective layer on leaves and stems.
• Soil Injections are used in the fall to send fertilizer straight to the root zone, where it’s absorbed and stored for the dormant season.

This dual-method approach ensures your plants are protected above and below ground, throughout the year.
