They can add color, flowers, vibrant foliage, and sometimes even fruit to your landscape. Shrubs can be used to create a focal point of interest, positioned strategically to create natural privacy screening, and to support and encourage migrating birds.<\/p>\n<p>There are several types of shrub that grow well in Hingham. Hingham, MA is in hardiness zone 6b, meaning that on average, it doesn\u2019t get much colder than 0 to -5 degrees. Many different shrubs thrive in this temperature range, including lilacs, blueberries, rhododendrons, evergreens and azaleas. When choosing a shrub, you\u2019ll want to think through what purpose you\u2019d like the shrub to serve in your landscape, the growth habit of the shrub, any special care or maintenance the shrub might need, and the cost and availability of that particular kind of shrub. Disease resistance is also a concern. Your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/boston-ma\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hingham lawn care service<\/a> can help you navigate all of these choices, so you can make a wise selection and choose a shrub that will give you lots of enjoyment for many years to come.<\/p>\n<p>So far this year, we haven\u2019t had a lot of snow in Hingham. As we all know, that\u2019s not always the case. Last year was a whopper! That kind of heavy snow accumulation can be really tough on shrubs, hedges and even trees. Snow is heavy, and it weighs branches down, sometimes to the point where they break right off. Obviously this is not good for your shrubs. Now is the time, if you haven\u2019t already, to have your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/boston-ma\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hingham lawn service<\/a> prep the shrubs for winter. Wrapping shrubs protects them from snow, freezing rain and damaging winds. It\u2019s a good way to take care of the shrubs that give you so much joy in the warmer months. The wrappings come off in the spring with your shrubs looking as good as new!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shrubs are one of the best ways to add color and visual interest to your Hingham lawn.
