Gardening is not only a therapeutic and calming process, but if you know about plants then you might know that they have many more benefits than meet the eye at first sight. Maintaining your home garden and making new additions to it regularly could often help with keeping you content and your home green. But maintaining the perfect, calming garden can be a difficult process to do on your own. This is where professional garden maintenance comes into play.
If you have been considering getting professional help for garden maintenance but have also been unsure about where to start and how to go about it, stick around because we will answer all your questions in this article.

• Garden Maintenance Services: What are they?

Garden maintenance services include a wide range of activities designed to keep your home garden in the best shape. These projects go beyond simple garden maintenance and transcend into getting to know your land in order to determine the plan of action.

At Ugaoo, that is how we begin. Once we get a lay of your land, we believe your plants have a way of letting their care requirements be known. Under the vast umbrella of garden maintenance services, we offer a variety of sub-services that will allow you to get timely, cost-effective, and the best possible care for your plants.

• Garden Maintenance According to your Garden Design

We believe that getting a lay of your land also means keeping your garden design in mind. However that may be, there are multiple services that will help you achieve your desired result. Here are a few of the services that we offer at Ugaoo for garden maintenance: 

1. Balcony Garden Maintenance:

The maintenance for plants in balconies is ultimately the same for gardens in lawns or on floor levels. However, you need to keep in mind that even though a balcony is off the ground, pests still have a way of attacking your plants. Which is why you need to be on the lookout for any such pesky pests and get rid of them in a timely manner.

2. Pest control and Fertigation:

A big aspect of effective garden care is pest control. Making sure that pests like aphids, caterpillars, and other mites are not feeding off of your plants is crucial. Ugaoo provides the right kind of care for your home garden and makes sure your plants are safe.
Moreover, we also offer fertigation services, which means getting fertilizers to your plants through an effective irrigation system.

3. Pot Rearrangement and Cleaning:

Cleaning pots each time you empty them out for whatever reason is vital. Regardless of their material, debris accumulates at the bottom of pots and creates an unclean environment for any plants that may be in it in the future. They run a risk of infection and thus of not being able to grow properly.

4. Rearrangement and Guidance:

When it comes to creating a proper garden design or layout for your home garden, knowing their individual requirements and properties is crucial. We offer services that will help you with understanding that and determining an appropriate placement for them. Some of them will require higher levels of direct sunlight while others will need lower levels of indirect sunlight. With the guidance of plant experts, determining and deciding a tailored layout according to your own unique garden becomes much easier.

5. Soil Loosening:

Loosening of soil is an important process which improves the texture and drainage of the soil. If soil is overwatered, it becomes too compact and excess water does not have any drainage space which leaves the plant’s roots unable to breathe.

6. Cleaning and Pruning of Plants:

Pruning is the process of cutting off and removing any parts of a plant that are not visually appealing, not vital to the growth of the plant anymore, or ones that tamper with or obstruct its growth in any way. Professional pruning ensures correct techniques, timing, and safety, preventing damage to plants, promoting healthy growth, and enhancing aesthetics, whereas incorrect pruning techniques can harm plants and also diminish their vitality.

7. Cultivation:

Cultivation in home gardens is a long process encompassing soil preparation, planting, and ongoing plant care. When it comes to home gardening, professional cultivation services offer several advantages. These experts bring in valuable skillsets, starting with precise soil analysis to determine its quality and nutrient content. They also employ proper planting techniques, ensuring that the right crops or ornamental plants are placed in the right locations for optimal growth. 

• Vertical Gardening: Installation and Maintenance
