Landscape Management Tips For Spring


With spring in full bloom, it is essential for you to make sure that your yard is prepared. You want to create a lavish display of greenery and floral delights to showcase the best of what your property has to offer. Before you start renovating your lawn, however, it is a good idea to think about doing a little bit of spring cleaning. Your garden will thank you when you get rid of some dead growth and make room for its new, beautiful potential. Depending on the size of the workload, you may benefit from contacting a landscaping company as well should any of the following tasks prove too much to handle.


General Plant Clean-Up


Begin with the obvious sections of your landscape that need a trim. Relatively low-maintenance areas can stand to have a bit of pruning now and again. The trimming is best performed during the milder seasons to reduce stress on the plant. Perhaps the most massive clean-up operation will be removing frost-damaged plants and dead foliage around dormant plants once winter is over. Dead foliage should be removed to make breathing room for new growth. Because every garden is unique, it is vital for you to appraise the area according to how different environmental factors affect it, such as sloping for rain and surface exposure for sunlight.


Plan for Weeds


Weeds are often seen as the bane of every diligent gardener. Before you get your spade and start digging away at some of the more overgrown sections of your garden, think about whether the weeds are a detriment to the property or not. If you have a very specific floorplan in mind for the garden, it can help to stay on top of the weeds, but if you want to let the natural look overtake the area, it can help to allow the plants a little bit of growing room. Some weeds, like dandelions, clovers, and wild carrot can add functionality and attractiveness to the lawn, so be sure to adjust according to your needs.


Miscellaneous Chores


Apart from the large-scale planning that you may need to do, it is always a good idea to keep up with standard hardware maintenance. Take a look around the property. Are the rain barrels and troughs clear of debris? What about the feeders and birdhouses? Do you compost? Do you need to turn the compost? What about your irrigation systems and waterway connections? Take a look at all of the areas leading up to the garden and make sure that you pay attention to their maintenance. Every little thing can play a significant role in improving the growth of your greenery, especially if you have specific projects in mind.


If you need assistance with your landscape management, it is highly recommended for you to work with a landscaping company. When you contact Cut-N-Edge Lawn & Landscape, you have the chance to work with capable professionals who will always personalize the maintenance work for you.
