Lime Treatment for Balanced Soil
When your grass starts looking a bit yellowed or thin, it might be telling you something about your soil. At The Guys in Purple, we don't guess—we test! If our soil analysis reveals acidic conditions below the optimal pH level, we'll recommend a targeted lime treatment. These soil amendments work wonders by neutralizing acidity and creating the perfect environment for nutrient absorption. Our technicians apply specially formulated lime pellets that dissolve with rainfall, allowing your grass to access the nutrients it needs to grow strong and healthy. Unlike companies that automatically apply lime yearly, we only recommend treatments when your lawn truly needs them.
Tree & Shrub Care
Your trees and shrubs represent significant financial investments in your Salem landscape. Just like your lawn, these valuable plants need professional care to stay healthy, vibrant, and resistant to threats. Without proper nutrition and protection, trees and shrubs become vulnerable to countless pests and diseases that can quickly undo years of growth and beauty. Thankfully, professional tree fertilization and targeted treatments can help your ornamental plants thrive for generations.
