There are various types of professionals that offer tree services in and around Charleston, including handymen, local companies, and certified arborists. Certified arborists undergo extensive training and have expertise in evaluating the health of individual trees. The International Society of Arboriculture promotes best practices in arboriculture through research, technology, and training to benefit trees and increase public awareness. Hiring professional landscapers can provide benefits like properly selecting plants suited for a property's location and ensuring their survival, improving curb appeal more than homeowners may realize.
This newsletter summarizes strategies for commercial nurseries and landscapers to increase sales and reduce plant diseases. To attract customers, businesses can use colorful displays near entrances using bedding plants, colored benches, or shade cloth. Mature specimen plants can demonstrate future growth. During summer, greenhouse cooling is needed to exchange hot air for cooler air outside using appropriately sized fans and inlets. To reduce plant diseases, businesses should use minimal mulch, pick up prunings, water in mornings, consider drip irrigation, avoid overwatering, and apply preventative pesticides early.
The printing industry has made many strides to reduce the negative impact we have on the environment. A “paperless” society may be a noble mission, but it’s neither practical nor doable. Paper products are here to stay. So what can we be doing together – as print communications partners – to design and produce the most earth-friendly print products?

This presentation shows how to remove crown vetch. Crown vetch has long stems that allow it to grown and cover desirable plants. The difficulty in controlling it is that spraying weed killer may also kill those desirable plants. This presentation shows how to control crown vetch without harming those desirable, native plants. It uses foam herbicide from Green Shoots, https://www.greenshootsonline.com/ .
Pruning fruit trees requires different techniques than other landscape trees. Proper pruning helps improve fruit quality by maximizing light exposure, distributing fruiting wood, controlling tree size and health, reducing limb breakage, and increasing air flow. Pruning is usually done during dormancy from January through March to establish the tree structure and remove damaged or diseased branches, though some summer pruning may also be needed. Tools must be disinfected between cuts to prevent disease spread.

The document summarizes the results of a consumer survey conducted by bpost in Belgium regarding attitudes towards advertising and preferred media channels. A representative sample of over 1000 Belgian residents aged 15 and older were interviewed. The survey found that 38% would prefer direct mail for receiving unsolicited advertising from fashion retailers. Preferred media channels varied slightly based on gender and language. Digital natives had a stronger preference for direct mail advertising from fashion retailers compared to other age groups. Clothing and footwear was identified as a sector where consumers are most interested in receiving more information.
It is madness to make broad generalizations and lose faith based on single negative experiences. One should not give up on dreams after one failure, lose faith in prayer after one goes unanswered, abandon friends after one betrayal, or reject love after one rejection. While success is not guaranteed on the first attempt, giving up ensures failure. One should persist and find happiness each day, as renewed opportunities or strengths may arise, and future success sometimes follows past failures.

Tree Planting Best Practices: A Review for Citizen Foresterstreedc
This document provides best practices for citizen foresters to plant trees. It outlines the necessary tools, describes different types of tree stock that may be planted, and provides a 10 step process to successfully plant a tree with a team. The steps include setting up a work space, inspecting the tree, finding the root flare, digging a hole, placing the tree, backfilling, staking, mulching, installing a watering device, and celebrating with the team. Attention to details like proper depth and care of the root system are emphasized to ensure high survival rates of the trees planted.
Landscape maintenance includes watering, fertilizing, mulching, pest control, mowing, edging, winterization and pruning plants. Watering should be done frequently when plants are first planted to prevent wilting, then less as plants are established. Fertilizer should be mixed in at planting and added to established plants as needed. Mulch should be replenished as it decays. Pest control prevents damage from insects, diseases and weeds. Pruning improves plant health, appearance and controls size/shape, with timing depending on plant type. A variety of tools are used for different pruning tasks.

The document discusses tree protection during construction. It notes that the majority of a tree's root system is located in the top layers of soil and that damage to these roots can kill the tree. It recommends developing a tree protection plan before construction that inventories existing trees, notes which will be preserved, and identifies protection measures like fencing and root pruning in critical root zones to minimize damage. The plan should communicate protection procedures to eliminate stress factors like compaction, trenching, and grade changes that can damage roots and stress trees.

To improve the knowledge about principle and practice of canopy management in fruit crop
Enhancing understanding of canopy management principles and practices in fruit crops is paramount for optimizing orchard productivity. This involves comprehending canopy architecture, growth patterns, and physiological processes influencing fruit production. Through targeted practices such as pruning, thinning, and training, canopy structure, light penetration, and airflow are optimized, promoting balanced vegetative growth, flowering, and fruit set. Moreover, knowledge of rootstock-scion interactions allows for tailored canopy management strategies, further enhancing fruit quality and yield. By honing canopy management expertise, growers can maximize resource utilization, mitigate disease susceptibility, and improve overall fruit crop sustainability and profitability.

- The best height for mixed fescue lawns in Virginia is about 3 inches. Grass should never be cut more than 1/3 of its length at a time.
- Mow the perimeter first before mowing inward paths. Overlap passes slightly to ensure even cutting.
- Always use a sharp blade when mowing and sharpen blades annually. Dull blades can damage grass.

The city of Greenfield lost a 9-acre park in 1998, leaving it with only 105 acres of park land. In 1999, a non-profit called PARCS was created to help acquire more park land. In 2000, PARCS acquired a 63-acre parcel of land. From 2001-2002, PARCS funded the acquisition through several large donations. From 2004-2006 and 2007-2008, PARCS developed the park in two phases through additional public and private funds totaling over $1.1 million, more than doubling the size of the city's park system.
How To Keep Your Professional Staff Results Of A State National StudyIPRA conference

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
