Treemendous Landscape Co. of Plainfield, Ill., has merged with Great Impressions, the residential division of Sebert Landscaping in Bartlett, Ill. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Treemendous, a residential design/build and maintenance firm was founded 20 years ago by Jeff Korhan, a Professional Landcare Network (PLANET) board member.
