Welcome. I provide landscaping plus shrub and small to medium size tree pruning around Medford, Jacksonville, Central Point and Ashland in southern Oregon. There were a few repeat customers near Portland during winter holiday but my landscape work is almost entirely in the Rogue Valley. Services include skilled pruning, sod lawn, tree and shrub planting, paver block paths, garden beds, drainage and Japanese Maple pruning. Take a moment to review the background and various testimonials. Homeowners often call for advice about landscape, tree care and drainage. Those consultations average 1 hour. For tree care, review Pruning Services. I entered horticulture in 1980 with golf courses, university campuses and parks, followed by residential landscapes: over 40 years of experience.
Two specialized services are tree measuring and photography which evolved from experience measuring old growth coast redwoods for research work. Later, some forest photography evolved into portraits. On that note, the 2nd menu below leads to over 200 pages about landscaping tips plus redwood information.
Over the years, I found that nuts & bolts of tree care are unrealized by a lot of landscape architects or arborists because many of them stay confined to a single facet of horticulture practice. This trade really requires the mindset of arborist, horticulturist and designer merged into one thought process. Apparently I'm one of the few who worked as both landscape designer and arborist and it's proven to make a difference. Typically, my pruning trends "natural" but I can make exception for unique houses like one Rogue Valley Landscape
