Tree & Shrub Planting

Trees and shrubs bring life and character to your landscape. They blend colors and textures that are rich with beauty, elevating the look and feel of your outdoor space. A large evergreen can provide privacy as well as a scent of pine, while other types of trees can add foliage and shade. Shrubs soften the lower landscape of the yard and produce an assortment of colors as the seasons change. Our horticulture experts at Blue Aspen Contracting in Calgary can give you advice as to which trees and shrubs will grow best in certain locations and soil conditions.

 

Planting new trees and shrubs that are appropriate to your area increases your property value, saves energy costs, and makes your homes’ or businesses’ landscape more beautiful. Our team of landscape experts pays specific attention to the details when it comes to planting, as both trees and shrubs can be very fragile when still young. Trees grow as people do, and watching a favourite tree grow up with your family can be a sentimental and joyous experience for everyone.

Residential Tree & Shrub planting

Every homeowner, at one time or another, wants to plant trees and shrubs around their home. Tree plantings are attractive, provide shade, help with erosion control, reduce the effects of drought near homes, provide windbreaks for homes in harsh weather conditions and improve property value. Despite how easy it may seem, there are important things that should be considered before doing so; Tree plantings are permanent additions to your property that should be well planned before any shovel is plunged into the ground.

Important things to consider and know are:

Size and number of trees: Tree plantings should consist of a limited number of similar sized trees with enough space to grow and develop as they mature. Tree spacing is determined by the mature size, or spread, of the canopy desired. The final stand (or the group of trees that are planted together) should be thinned over time so that only the trees that remain provide adequate coverage. This will maintain a full stand of shade-producing trees while limiting competition for water, nutrients and sunlight.

Amount of space: Tree planting recommendations are based on a certain amount of open, or lawn, spaces around them. Tree and shrub species vary in height, which determines how much space is required between each tree for adequate growth and development.

Fertilization: Tree and shrub plantings require nutrients to ensure they grow and develop into healthy and strong trees and shrubs. It's important to understand the needs of what you will be planting before doing so to ensure the health of said species.

Irrigation: Perhaps one of the most important pieces to consider is how you will get water to your trees and shrubs. Having a professional irrigation plan is the key to success when it comes to the growth and maintenance of your trees and shrubs.

Commercial Tree & Shrub Planting

A well-maintained, attractive property with aesthetic features has the power to attract potential clients. A well-kept, attractive facility with aesthetic touches conveys a message that the owners care about their customers and their business. An unkempt property, on the other hand, suggests that the owner does not care about his or her business or clients.

At Blue Aspen Contracting, we can help you improve your commercial property's curb appeal by professionally planting trees, shrubs, and flowers. We have over 13 years experience in commercial landscaping and work with you through the planning, and execution of the entirety of the project so you don't have to worry about it. We work with a wide range of budgets, so if you're looking to improve your business's curb appeal with tree's and shrubs, contact us today to get started!

Want to thank the team at Blue Aspen for the work they did. The complete transformation of our back and front yard is amazing. The work required to take a sloped back yard and creating three levels with beautiful rock retaining walls is absolutely stunning. The curving of pathways and blending existing hardscaping was a challenge but turned out flawlessly. The crew as courteous and accommodating to requests and suggestions, making the whole experience a delight. Thank you!

Blue Aspen did our landscaping and I couldn’t be happier. We have a challenging lot with quite a steep side grade. Dean immediately visualized how to make it work and provided a great plan. The team was always professional and respectful of us and our neighbours. The end result is beautiful and I highly recommend Blue Aspen.

We had our full corner lot landscaped by Blue Aspen, working from a landscaping plan. We are delighted with the results! The company was very responsive during the quoting and contracting process, and the on-site crew led by Justin was professional, conscientious, and great to deal with. The curbing crew also did a great job. We’re so pleased with the transformation. I highly recommend them for your landscaping needs.
