What types of trees and shrubs do you plant?

We plant a wide range of ornamental trees, privacy shrubs, flowering shrubs, foundation plants, and small accent trees. We help you choose plants that fit your yard size, sunlight, soil, drainage, and long-term goals. If you want shade, privacy, curb appeal, or a cleaner landscape design, we will recommend options that make sense for your property.

How do you know what plants will work best in my yard?

We look at the real conditions of your property before we plant anything. That includes sun exposure, spacing, drainage, soil conditions, and how large the plants will get over time. This helps us avoid common problems like overcrowding, poor growth, blocked windows, roots too close to structures, or plants struggling in the wrong spot.

When is the best time to plant trees and shrubs?

In many cases, spring and fall are ideal times for tree and shrub planting because temperatures are milder and plants can focus on root growth. That said, the best timing depends on the plant type and your property conditions. We can let you know the right planting window for your yard and schedule the work at the best time.

Do you handle the full planting process, or do I need to prepare anything?

We handle the planting work from start to finish. That includes placement, digging, proper planting depth, backfilling, and making sure everything is installed correctly. We also help with plant layout so the finished look is balanced and clean. In most cases, all we need is access to the work area and a quick conversation about your goals before we begin.

How soon will my new trees or shrubs look established?

New plantings need time to root in and grow, so they usually do not look fully established right away. Some plants fill in faster than others, but healthy growth depends on correct planting, proper watering, and good placement. We set your trees and shrubs up the right way so they have the best chance to thrive and develop strong roots.

Tree & Shrub Planting Services | TrueSouth Lawn & Wash

At TrueSouth Lawn & Wash, LLC, we help homeowners add lasting beauty, shade, privacy, and curb appeal with professional tree and shrub planting. Planting looks simple, but getting healthy, long-term results takes the right plant, the right location, and the right installation process. We handle the full job with care so your new landscape has the best chance to thrive.

Our tree and shrub planting service is designed for property owners who want more than just holes dug in the ground. We look at the space, soil, drainage, sun exposure, and the mature size of the plant before we install anything. This helps prevent common problems like overcrowding, poor growth, root stress, and plants failing too early.

What our planting service includes

We start by learning what you want from the space. Some customers want a privacy screen. Others want flowering shrubs, foundation plantings, seasonal color, shade trees, or a cleaner landscape design around the home. Once we understand your goals, we help plan a layout that fits your property and budget.

Our service may include:

Site review and planting area evaluation
Help selecting trees and shrubs that fit the location
Spacing recommendations based on mature growth
Planting bed preparation
Professional installation of trees and shrubs
Proper planting depth and root ball placement
Backfilling and soil grading around the plant
Mulch installation around new plantings
Watering at the time of planting
Basic planting care guidance after installation

Choosing the right trees and shrubs

One of the most important parts of a successful landscape planting project is choosing plant material that works well for the property. We help you select options based on function, appearance, and maintenance needs. That can include evergreen shrubs for privacy, ornamental trees for visual interest, flowering plants for color, or low-maintenance shrubs for simple, clean landscaping.

We also consider practical details such as:

How much sunlight the area gets
How wet or dry the soil stays
Available space for roots and canopy growth
Distance from the house, driveway, fence, and utilities
Desired height, width, and shape at maturity
Seasonal appearance and long-term maintenance needs

Planting the wrong tree too close to a home, walkway, or utility area can create expensive problems later. We help you avoid those mistakes with thoughtful planning from the start.

Our planting process

We follow a careful process to give your new trees and shrubs the strongest start possible. First, we prepare the area and make sure each planting location makes sense for the species and expected growth. Then we dig properly sized planting holes, set each plant at the correct depth, and position the root ball carefully. Planting too deep or too shallow can stress the plant, so this step matters.

After placement, we backfill the hole, firm the soil as needed, and shape the area to help with watering and drainage. We finish with mulch around the base to help hold moisture, regulate soil temperature, and reduce weed growth. We also water plants in after installation to help settle the soil around the roots.

Benefits of professional tree and shrub planting

When installed correctly, trees and shrubs can improve your property in many ways. They can make your home look more finished, soften plain areas of the yard, and increase usable privacy. Shade trees can help cool outdoor spaces. Foundation shrubs can frame the home and improve curb appeal. Flowering and evergreen plantings can add color, texture, and year-round interest.

Professional planting also helps protect your investment. Healthy installation practices can improve survival rates, support root development, and reduce the chance of transplant shock. Instead of guessing on spacing, depth, or layout, you get a plan built around the property.

Ideal projects for this service

Our tree and shrub planting service is a great fit for many types of landscape projects, including:

New home landscaping
Replacing dead, overgrown, or poorly placed plants
Privacy hedge and screening installations
Front yard curb appeal upgrades
Foundation planting updates

What to expect after planting

New trees and shrubs need time to establish. The first weeks and months are important, especially when it comes to watering. We provide straightforward guidance so you know how to care for your new plants after installation. While every plant and property is different, proper watering, mulch maintenance, and early monitoring can make a big difference in long-term success.

It is normal for some new plantings to take time to adjust after being moved and installed. That is why proper planting methods matter so much. We focus on giving every tree and shrub the best possible start so it can settle in and grow well over time.
