Landscaping Tips for Every Season
Each season brings different challenges and opportunities for landscaping. Here’s a seasonal guide to keep your landscape thriving year-round:
- Spring
Spring is the ideal time for planting, mulching, and setting up irrigation. This season is also perfect for refreshing flower beds with vibrant annuals and preparing for the growing season.- Tasks: Prune trees and shrubs, fertilize, and apply mulch to retain soil moisture.
- Summer
With the heat of summer, maintaining proper hydration for plants is essential. Adding shade plants and installing sun-protective covers for delicate plants can help prevent sun damage.- Tasks: Water plants regularly, mow lawns at a higher setting to protect roots, and deadhead flowers to encourage growth.
- Fall
Fall is the time to prepare your landscape for winter. Planting perennials and trees, adding seasonal flowers, and removing fallen leaves ensure your landscape remains healthy.- Tasks: Rake leaves, apply a fall fertilizer, and plant bulbs for spring bloom.
- Winter
While winter may seem like a downtime for landscaping, it’s an opportunity to focus on maintenance and prepare for spring.- Tasks: Protect plants from frost, prune dormant trees, and plan for spring projects.
