The Natural State Ornamental Program
The Natural State Ornamental Program offers a comprehensive solution for pest control, disease management, and fertility enhancement in ornamental landscaping. It comprises three main components: fertility, protection from pests and diseases, and expertise.
The fertility aspect involves four tailored applications designed to promote vibrant blooms, lush foliage, and strong root growth while avoiding excessive flush growth. These include organic fertilizer blends enriched with over ten micronutrients, controlled-release granular nitrogen application mid-season, and a winter soil drench with "Root Shield" for enhanced plant defenses.
Pest and disease control applications are integrated into all seven treatments. NO UPSELLS OR EXTRAS. Healthy, well-fed plants have robust defenses. However, we come prepared for heightened pest and disease pressure with a secondary tank mix of targeted pesticides and fungicides, rotated seasonally for maximum effectiveness and pollinator protection.
Our ornamental technicians undergo rigorous training to ensure expertise in identifying and addressing plant stressors. This results in meticulous care tailored to your ornamentals while minimizing environmental impact.

The Natrual State Ornamental Program adds two extra treatments per year, ensuring consistent pest and disease prevention with minimal risk of re-infestation. Since we already use the best products available, increased application frequency is the only way to enhance results.
-
There are no "upsells or extras" on our ornamental programs. Everything you need is built in. If your plants have any issues, they will be treated accordingly.
If, for any reason, we suspect that a particular plant is suffering from a pest or disease, we have a separate dedicated tank on the ornamental truck. This tank contains a mix of premium NON-ORGANIC insecticides and fungicides that rotate depending on the time of year and what pests and diseases are active. We want to stay as organic as possible but will intervene with the other products if necessary.
-
We kick off the year with an organic biopesticide made from refined horticultural oil. It suffocates insect life stages and prevents diseases like rust, mildew, and Botrytis by blocking spore attachment. Safe for beneficial insects, it’s non-toxic and residue-free.
-
We nourish all your ornamental plants with a premium liquid organic fertilizer containing fish meal, kelp meal, seawater extracts, humic acids, and worm compost extracts. Enhanced with a micronutrient pack (phosphate, potash, magnesium, sulfur, copper, iron, manganese, zinc, and nitrogen), this advanced blend boosts blooms, reduces heat stress, and strengthens root systems.
-
This round, exclusive to the 7-treatment Natural State Ornamental Program, focuses on plant health inspection and targeted pest control. No fertilizer is applied, as the previous round remains active. We use a pollinator-friendly insecticide to eliminate aphids and whiteflies, along with a miticide and insect growth regulator to control mites and prevent future infestations. Sequential miticide treatments are applied within 30 days for effective mite management.
-
We enrich all ornamental spaces and potted plants with a premium, well-balanced granular fertilizer. This advanced formulation delivers a steady, slow-release supply of essential nutrients, including nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, ensuring sustained plant health and vibrant growth.

Exclusive to the 7-treatment Natural State Ornamental Program, this round includes a plant health inspection and targeted pest control. Plants in need receive a highly effective, safe insecticide for pests like bagworms, whiteflies, and aphids, along with an advanced fungicide to combat rust, mildew, blight, and leaf spot.

We conclude the season with a specialized organic root drench designed to protect your plants at their foundation. This treatment actively inhibits harmful pathogens, preventing disease before it can take hold. By safeguarding root health, we promote stronger, more resilient plants and ensure sustainable growth for seasons to come.
