Spring is the perfect time to address any issues or damages your landscape may have taken during Winter. Replanting trees or shrubs that may have died while installing perennials/annual flowers are just some of the things that should be handled at the start of Spring.
Summer can be a critical season due to excessive heat factors, drought and lawn issues. By keeping your irrigation system set so that both plants and turf are receiving the correct amount of hydration is necessary to keep them from drying out. The Summer season also presents problems such as lawn diseases and pests because both love to thrive in warm, damp environments.
Fall is the ideal time for planting because of the warm days, cool nights and substantial amounts of rainfall. During this time, it is best to install plants such as perennials, trees or shrubs. Not only do these plants thrive during this season, they adds seasonal color to your landscape.
Winter is spent preparing for Spring and maintaining landscapes – making sure all winter tasks are completed. Tasks such as dormant pruning, planting bulbs and taking care of any issues that may arise is the main focus.
