Tree & Shrub Care
Trees and shrubs do more than just fill space in your yard. They shape how your whole landscape looks and feels. They provide shade in the summer, structure in the winter, and curb appeal all year long. But for all the value they add, trees and shrubs need ongoing attention to stay healthy.
Here in Spokane, plants deal with a lot: dry summers, compact soil, sudden cold snaps, and pests that show up at just the wrong time. If they’re not regularly inspected and cared for, it’s easy for problems to sneak in (disease, insect damage, poor root health), and those issues often aren’t visible until things are already declining.
At Greenscape Landscaping, we offer professional tree and shrub care that’s focused on long-term plant health. Our team handles seasonal inspections, root feeding, disease prevention, and insect control so your trees and shrubs stay strong, full, and protected year after year.

Seasonal Treatments That Protect Your Plants
What’s Included in Our Tree & Shrub Care Program
Our annual tree and shrub health program is built for Spokane’s growing season, common plant stressors, and local pest threats. We time each treatment to give your trees and shrubs the support they need at exactly the right moment.
- Early Spring Treatment: We apply dormant oil and liquid copper spray to help prevent fungal diseases and kill overwintering pests before they wake up.
- Two Targeted Insect Sprays (Mid-Season): These applications protect against insects like aphids, mites, beetles, and scale that can defoliate or damage your plants during the growing season.
- Deep Root Feeding with Disease Prevention: This treatment delivers nutrients and disease-fighting elements directly to the roots, helping plants resist stress and grow stronger from the ground up.
Add-On Options Available:
- Systemic Drench Treatments: Ideal for large or tall trees that need internal pest protection.
- Tree Injections: For serious pest or disease issues that need fast, targeted action.
- Additional Deep Root Fertilization: Great for nutrient-deficient or declining trees and shrubs.
Why Tree & Shrub Health Care Matters
Tree and shrub problems often start small, and by the time you notice leaf drop, dieback, or discoloration, the damage may already be done.
Ongoing care helps catch issues early, before they become expensive or permanent. Our seasonal treatments protect against insects, disease, and environmental stress, keeping your plants strong and looking their best.
Some of the most common issues we treat in Spokane include:
- Aphids – Cause curled, sticky leaves
- Spider Mites – Thrive in hot, dry conditions
- Powdery Mildew – Affects lilacs and flowering shrubs
- Bronze Birch Borer – Deadly to birch trees
- Leaf Spot & Blight – Common in maples and fruit trees
- Chlorosis – Yellowing leaves from nutrient issues
- Scale Insects – Hide on stems and bark
- Root Rot – Linked to overwatering and poor drainage
Our licensed technicians tailor treatments to what’s actually happening, not just the time of year. It’s practical, proven care backed by experience.
Pest & Disease Solutions That Work
Tree & Shrub Care Built on Local Experience
Signs Your Trees Might Need Attention
Trees don’t always show obvious signs when something’s wrong, but if you know what to look for, the early warning signs are there. If you notice any of the following, it’s a good idea to schedule an inspection:
- Leaves turning yellow or dropping out of season
- Branches dying back or thinning at the tips
- Cracks or splits in bark
- Mushrooms or decay near the base
- Sawdust, bore holes, or peeling bark
- Galls, webbing, or insect clusters on branches
- A tree that just “doesn’t look right” compared to previous years
Even mature, well-established trees can decline fast if pests or disease go unnoticed. A quick check can make all the difference.
Signs Your Shrubs Need Help
Shrubs are lower to the ground, but they’re just as vulnerable to pests, fungus, and poor growing conditions. Watch for:
- Patchy or discolored foliage
- Sticky leaves or honeydew (often from aphids or scale)
- Wilting, even with adequate watering
- Powdery white or black coating on leaves
- Sections of the plant dying off
- Unusual leaf spotting or curling
- Stunted growth or lack of flowering
If your shrubs are looking tired, stressed, or out of balance, we can diagnose the issue and get them back on track with the right care.
