Shrubbery can add beauty to any landscaping, but there are a few tips you should remember
when it comes to either pruning trees or your shrubs to make your house the best it can
be. Number one is you should always trim your bushes about six inches to a foot away from
the house. The reason for that is most houses have wood on them, especially around the windows,
and you want to make sure that your windows are clear of any vegetation. Vegetation thrives
on water, and water and wood don't mix well together. So you want to give those bushes
plenty of space from the house. And one of the main things you want to remember when
it comes to pruning your trees is that no tree should be laying on top of your roof
because it will cut the life of the shingles. So if you keep these tips in mind, you can
keep your yard beautiful and your house healthy.
