What types of trees and shrubs do you plant?

We plant a wide range of ornamental trees, privacy shrubs, flowering shrubs, evergreens, and foundation plants. If you already know what you want, we can install it. If you are not sure, we will help you choose plants that fit your yard size, sunlight, soil, drainage, and long-term goals. Our job is to make sure your new planting looks great and has the best chance to grow well.

How do you choose the right location for planting?

Proper placement is one of the most important parts of tree and shrub planting. We look at sun exposure, drainage, spacing, root growth, nearby structures, and how large the plant will get over time. This helps prevent common problems like overcrowding, poor growth, blocked walkways, or roots too close to the home. We plan it right the first time so your landscape works now and years from now.

When is the best time to plant trees and shrubs?

In most cases, spring and fall are great times for planting because the weather is milder and plants can focus on root growth. That said, many trees and shrubs can also be planted at other times with the right care and watering plan. When you contact Frank's Outdoor Services, we will let you know if the timing is right for your specific plants and property conditions.

Do you prepare the soil before planting?

Yes. Good soil preparation matters. We check the planting area, dig to the proper depth and width, and make sure the tree or shrub is set at the right height. We also pay attention to drainage and soil conditions so the roots can establish properly. A rushed planting job often causes problems later, so we take the time to do it correctly.

Will you tell me how to care for the plants after installation?

Absolutely. After we plant, we will go over the basic care you need to keep your new trees and shrubs healthy, including watering, mulch, pruning timing, and what to watch for in the first few weeks. We want you to feel confident, not confused. If you have questions after the job, you can reach out to us and we will help you protect your investment.

How much does tree and shrub planting cost?

The cost depends on the size and number of plants, the plant type, access to the area, soil conditions, and how much preparation is needed. We provide clear estimates so you know what to expect before work begins. Our goal is to give you lasting value, professional planting, and a landscape that adds beauty and curb appeal.

Tree & Shrub Planting Services | Frank's Outdoor Services

At Frank's Outdoor Services, we help homeowners choose and install the right trees and shrubs for their yard. Good planting is about more than digging a hole and dropping in a plant. The right location, the right plant, and the right planting method all matter. When done the right way, new landscape trees and shrubs add shade, privacy, color, curb appeal, and long-term value to your property.

We offer complete tree and shrub planting services for new landscape beds, foundation plantings, privacy screens, accent areas, and property upgrades. Whether you want a few ornamental shrubs near the front walk or a full planting plan for your yard, we handle the job with care from start to finish.

What Our Tree & Shrub Planting Service Includes

We start by learning what you want from your landscape. Some customers want low-maintenance shrubs. Others want flowering trees, evergreen screening, seasonal color, or better balance around the home. We look at the space, sun exposure, drainage, soil conditions, and planting goals so we can recommend options that make sense for your property.

Our service can include:

Site review and planting layout
Help selecting trees, shrubs, and planting locations
Planting for privacy, shade, color, borders, and foundation beds
Installation of ornamental trees, evergreen trees, flowering shrubs, and hardy landscape shrubs
Proper hole preparation and planting depth
Soil amendment when needed
Mulching around new plantings
Clean-up of the work area after installation

We focus on proper planting practices because that gives your investment the best chance to establish and grow well. A tree planted too deep, in the wrong area, or without attention to soil and drainage can struggle from day one. We work to avoid those problems.

Choosing the Right Trees and Shrubs

One of the biggest parts of a successful planting project is selection. Not every plant is a good fit for every yard. We help you choose plants based on how the area functions and how much maintenance you want to take on. We consider mature size, growth rate, root space, sunlight, water needs, and overall appearance through the seasons.

We can help with common planting goals such as:

Privacy trees and shrubs to create a natural screen
Foundation shrubs to soften the front of the home
Flowering shrubs for seasonal interest
Evergreens for year-round structure and color
Accent trees to create a focal point
Small trees and shrubs for compact yards
Layered landscape planting for a fuller, more polished look

Our goal is to help you avoid common mistakes like overcrowding, poor placement, or choosing plants that outgrow the space too quickly. We want your landscape planting to look good now and still work well years down the road.

Our Planting Process

We follow a careful process to give new trees and shrubs the best possible start. Every property is different, but our planting work is built around sound landscape installation methods.

Planning the layout: We identify the planting areas and spacing based on the size and growth habit of each plant.
Preparing the site: We clear the planting area as needed and make sure the location is ready for installation.
Digging and set placement: We prepare planting holes to fit the root ball and place plants at the correct depth.
Backfilling and soil work: We backfill carefully and address soil conditions when needed for better establishment.
Mulching and finishing: We apply mulch around the base to help retain moisture, reduce weeds, and give the area a clean finished look.
Final review: We make sure the installation is neat, consistent, and ready for healthy growth.

Proper spacing and placement are important. Trees and shrubs need room for roots, branches, and air movement. We install with the future in mind, not just the look on planting day.

Benefits of Professional Tree & Shrub Planting

Professional planting saves time, reduces guesswork, and helps protect your investment. When homeowners try to handle plant installation on their own, they often run into issues with plant choice, placement, spacing, or planting depth. Those problems can lead to weak growth, disease stress, or early plant loss.

When we handle your tree and shrub installation, you get:

Guidance from an experienced landscaping team
Plants placed where they can thrive
A cleaner, more balanced landscape design
Improved curb appeal and property value
A better chance of long-term plant health
Less stress and less physical labor for you

New planting can make a major difference in how your home looks and feels. The right trees and shrubs can frame the house, define outdoor spaces, add privacy, and make the yard more inviting.

Our tree and shrub planting service is a great fit for many types of landscape projects. We work with homeowners who are starting from scratch, replacing overgrown plantings, or improving specific parts of the yard.

Common projects include:
