"It is a one man business. He was thorough and competent in pruning and shaping three fifteen foot pine trees. He checked with me several times to be sure the result would be what I wanted. The fee was reasonable. His attitude was not "get it done" but do it right."

"Not only did Kyle respond very quickly, but he followed through from beginning to end. Leonard's Landscaping professionally and skillfully completed removing a large area of stubborn pachysandras from our back yard and patiently answered our many questions regarding other yard projects we anticipate. We were very happy with the pachysandra removal and leveling of our yard afterward. They worked efficiently and communicated with us during the entire process to ensure services were being met. Beautiful work Leonard's Landscaping! We would certainly use your services again."

"My husband I contacted three landscaping companies in early February. Out of the three, two took some pictures and answered our questions, but they never got back to us with an estimate. Reggie was the last to meet with us due to scheduling problems. When he met with us, he took the time to describe what he envisioned for our flowerbeds and was able to give us an estimate that day. The project began on May 24th and was completed the next day. The flowerbeds in the front of the house were overgrown and/or dead. Reggie and his employee, Nick, tore out everything and proceeded to edge, plant shrubs and perennials. He also trimmed our dwarf cherry tree, cleaned up the beds and spread mulch. In addition, he also planted four cypresses on our properly line to give us a little privacy. We are pleased with the end result. Reggie is a professional and we recommend him for any landscaping projects."

"Sublime Innovations did an excellent job in getting my landscaping together for the start of the growing season. We used them to refresh the landscaping around our yard. Our landscaping had overgrown and become unkempt during the fall and winter. Sublime Innovations was able to clean all of the flower beds of dead matter and weeds and trim all of our hedges and bushes so that they are more manageable to maintain. We will definitely be using them again for maintenance of our landscaping to ensure it remains beautiful."

FAQs for trees & shrubs treat, protect and maintain projects in Lancaster, PA

The optimal transplanting season depends on your tree species, but most trees respond best when moved during dormancy. For deciduous trees, late fall after leaf drop or early spring before bud break provides the lowest stress periods. Evergreens transplant better in early fall or late summer when soil temperatures remain warm enough for some root growth. Avoiding transplanting during active growth periods helps trees direct energy toward establishing new roots rather than supporting foliage.

While technically, trees of any size can be transplanted with the right equipment and expertise, practical considerations limit what's reasonable for most homeowners. Trees with trunk diameters under 15 inches are most commonly transplanted in residential settings. Success rates decline as trees increase in size and age, with specimens over 24 inches in diameter presenting significant challenges and costs. For large trees, carefully weigh the substantial investment against the potential benefits and survival probability.

Most transplanted trees require one to two years to fully establish in their new location, with larger specimens often needing additional time. During this establishment period, the tree regenerates roots that were inevitably lost during the move. Signs of successful establishment include normal seasonal growth patterns, healthy leaf development, and reduced dependence on supplemental watering. The quality of aftercare during this critical period significantly influences long-term survival rates.

Self-transplanting is feasible for small trees with trunk diameters under two to three inches if you have proper tools and follow correct techniques. However, medium to large trees require professional expertise and specialized equipment to ensure tree survival and property protection. While professional services cost more initially, they achieve much higher success rates and prevent potential damage to your property or the tree itself. The investment in professional services often proves worthwhile when considering the value of mature trees.
