Re: do not let them prune! This guy apparently makes his living off of customers who either don't know or don't care that his men aren't trained to know a juniper from a yew and that all plants are not meant to look the same!
Even though I rent here I care about what the outside looks like and this place was just decimated. It's typical yet outrageous that men are given power tools and sent out to destroy without any training at all. Why don't they know that junipers are supposed to have pointed tips? So now every clethra, white pine, azalea, yew, abelia, viburnum, and yes even the grasses look like the same sad homogenized blob. In the time these guys were standding around chatting (leaving 2 guys to finish up the carnage) they could have been pruning the azaleas by hand as they should be. Nope -speed and a heavy hand was used on every single plant here and we and the plants are the worse for it. read more
