SPRING AND FALL CLEAN UP
Spring
Remove settled debris from planting bed areas and lawn (fallen branches, leaves, general debris, etc.)
Restore clean edges around planting beds at 3 inch depth
Prune trees, and trim bushes to remove any dead portions, and restore the intended shape for the most aesthetically pleasing appearance
Apply pre-emergent weed control in planting beds mitigating weed growth
Fall
Leaf removal from turf and planting beds, moving leaves to a specific location on the property; placed for municipal pick-up, or removed from your property.
Ornamental grass & perennials pruned (or grasses tied up) to mitigate potential winter damage
Trim & shape bushes, as well as prune trees to remove dead or decaying branches
LAWN MAINTENANCE
Maintain grass at a recommended 3″ height – Typically this will be a weekly grass cut during peak growing season (weather permitting), and as needed into late fall
Keep turf areas clear of natural debris, to present a clean cut and lined appearance
Edge grass lines where they meet paved drives, and walkways, maintaining the intended shape of the lawn (each time the grass is cut)
Trimming around trees, planting beds, and other fixed structures in the yard (each time the grass is cut)
After grass is mowed, edged, and trimmed – drives, walkways, patios, etc. will be blown off to remove any grass clippings or other smaller debris
MULCHING
Enhance the appearance & contrast of your landscape, raising bed areas between 3-6 inches
Mulch will also help beds retain moisture, prevent soil erosion, maintain nutrients, control pests, and mitigate unwanted weed growth
BED MAINTENANCE
Keep planting beds free of weeds, mitigating unwanted growth using pre-emergent applications, as well as manually removing weeds
PRUNING
Peak Season
Trim bushes, shrubs, etc. to desired shape and length
After pruning is complete, clippings will be removed from the property
AERATION
Aerating in Spring or Fall will enhance air exchange with soil, improve fertilizer uptake, reduce water runoff, and promote stronger turfgrass
Helps to enhance the turfgrass ability to tolerate heat & drought, as well as improved resiliency & cushioning
SEASONAL COLOR ENHANCEMENTS
Adding the right touch of flowers throughout the season will make your yard even more beautiful.
