The Mossy Tree, LLC is proud to offer spring and fall garden clean up, fertilization and soil amendment, mulching, pruning, weeding and perennial care. Our knowledge of soil chemistry and Northern Michigan plant life insure that fertilization, pruning and perennial division are done at the right time of year. Visits can be scheduled seasonally, monthly, biweekly or weekly based on the needs and goals of the customer.
We believe that healthy soil is the basis for all of our maintenance work.
When soil is healthy it is a smorgasbord of plant ready nutrients. Plants just select what they need. Our sandy Northern Michigan soils need organic matter to act as an important energy source for bacteria, fungi and earthworms living in them. Bringing beneficial soil microbes to life improves soil aeration, water infiltration, and soil structure. This creates a better environment for roots leading to bigger, greener healthier plant. Healthy soil allows less use of chemicals which in turn protects pollinators and our precious waterways in Northern Michigan.
