YardVarks’ Plant Health Program is designed to help you get the maximum benefit out of your landscape!
Carefully timed fertilizers during the growing season help produce bright blooms on flowering plants and deeper green foliage on trees and shrubs.
In addition to producing excellent growth, this program also works to prevent damage by administering a preventative systemic insecticide prior to every Spring which works throughout the Spring & Summer months.
On certain plants which are susceptible to fungal infections, YardVarks will also apply preventative antifungal treatments at the appropriate times.
You’ve invested a lot in your landscape and this program will help you reap the greatest rewards from that investment.
Round 1: Dormant Oil Application – Dormant oil applied to all trees and shrubs to prevent overwintering insects from emerging in Spring.
Round 2: – Fungicide + Foliar Fertilizer + Systemic Insecticide – This application uses three separate products to help landscape plants to stay healthy throughout the Spring. A fungicide is applied to prevent fungal infections such as Leaf Spot, which are common during the warm, moist months of Spring. A “systemic” insecticide is also applied to prevent Spring insects from boring into the woody and leafy tissue of landscape plants as they come out of dormancy. Systemic insecticides work by entering the vascular system of the plant then killing any insect which tries to feed on the plant material. A Foliar Fertilizer is applied to feed any flowering trees and plants.
Round 3: Slow- Release Fertilizer + Contact Insecticide – Application of balanced fertilizer to help blooming plants produce strong buds for vibrant blooms to follow, as well as creating brilliant foliage in non-flowering trees & shrubs. Since insect pests are common in Oklahoma throughout the growing season, we use a “contact” insecticide each Summer, which as the name denotes, kills any insects it comes in direct contact with inside the landscape.
Round 4: Insecticide – This application is customized every season depending on what type of pests might be present at the time. At YardVarks, we pay special attention to reports from local entomologists and officials to make sure we stay ahead of damaging insects throughout the growing season
Round 5: Deep Root Fertilizer Injections – This application is geared towards replenishing the nutrients and micro-nutrients in the soil for the trees in the landscape. This treatment will help trees expand and strengthen their existing root zone, thereby improving their overall health and vigor.
Round 6: Dormant oil insecticide to control overwintering eggs of red spiders, scale insects, aphids, bud moths, leaf roller, red bug, codling moth, blister mites, galls, whitefly, mealy bugs and other insects
