Horticultural Asset Management, Inc. Names Superior NW Tree and Shrub Care, Inc. Premier Level Member

Cary, NC, October 16, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Doug Cowles, president and CEO of Horticultural Asset Management, Inc., has announced that Superior NW Tree And Shrub Care, Inc. has joined the Premier Level Member (PLM) Network. As a member of the PLM Network, a Superior NW certified arborist will conduct landscape assessments on residential and commercial properties to determine the types, sizes and condition of woody trees and shrubs. From this data, HMI’s system will establish the replacement cost valuation of each plant assessed.

Members of HMI’s PLM Network are able to provide property owners with risk mitigation services, repair and tree replacement services as needed. In addition, PLM Network members receive work referrals, customized covers and discounted pricing on HMI’s property-specific landscape owner’s manual, The HMI Horticultural Assessment.

The HMI system establishes replacement values for landscapes and individual plants, which can be used to establish insurance coverage requirements, help determine casualty loss values and support the asking price of a landscaped property during a real estate transaction. In addition, HMI provides its customers with a Dr. Michael Dirr Plant Guide, which describes each assessed plant and offers customized care and maintenance information.

“The Premier Level Member Network is a critical component of our comprehensive plan to support insurance casualty loss and valuation services for all residential and commercial property owners,” said Cowles. “We are thrilled to expand our services into the Pacific Northwest by having Superior NW Tree And Shrub Care, Inc., one of the leading green industry service providers in the market, join our PLM Network.”

“We are excited to join HMI’s PLM Network,” said Rebecca Moran, president of Superior NW Tree And Shrub Care, Inc. “We believe HMI’s replacement cost values will further consumers’ awareness of the value of their landscape assets, as well as the need for high-quality tree care and risk management plans.”
