Getting your yard "Get Together Ready" for spring!

Spring is here and we're ready to bust out of our winter caves and get some fresh air! The last few years have taught us to appreciate the outdoors more than ever, especially our own backyards. So, let's get them in tip-top shape for some social gatherings with these five spring landscape maintenance musts!

#1 Give Your Lawn Some Love

Your lawn needs to breathe too! Core aeration and overseeding will give it the nutrients, oxygen, and moisture it needs to thrive. Without it, your lawn won't absorb the nutrients it needs to stay healthy and green.

#2 Trim Your Tree Limbs

Dead and dying tree limbs are a liability waiting to happen. Don't let them ruin your outdoor fun! Prune trees that block your view or interfere with walkways. And while you're at it, get rid of any wayward shrubbery that's blocking your path.

While you're at it, if you want to trim your weekly lawn care costs for 2023, there's a form for that. Request your custom quote – we almost guarantee we can lower your costs.

#3 Replace Tired Plants

Plants age, just like us. And sometimes, they need to be replaced with something fresh and new. Tired plants are more susceptible to disease and require more care to thrive. Don't waste your time trying to save them - swap them out for something healthier and low-maintenance.

#4 Clean Up Those Messy Beds

Out with the old and in with the new! Get rid of leftover leaves, dead perennials, and messy mulch. Define your beds with some crisp edging and voila! You've got a beautifully neat and tidy space ready for some spring growth.

#5 Schedule Your Spring Cleanup!

Don't let the clutter of winter drag you down! It's time to schedule your Spring Cleanup and get your outdoor space looking its best. A thorough cleanup includes removing debris, sweeping walkways, and power washing surfaces. Here are some reasons why a spring cleanup is a must:

  • It removes debris that can harbor pests and diseases.
  • It improves the overall health of your plants by allowing them to get the sunlight and nutrients they need.
  • It reduces the risk of slips and falls by removing hazards like wet leaves and debris.
  • It saves you time and effort in the long run by preventing problems before they start.
