Seasonal Yard Care Tips – Keep Your Landscape Thriving Year-Round

General Tips for a Healthy Yard

  • Mulch Wisely – Keep mulch away from tree trunks and ornamental plants to prevent rotting.
  • Smart Watering – Adjust your sprinkler system to avoid waste and ensure efficient hydration.
  • Proper Mulching – Maintain healthy shrubs and trees with mulch to regulate temperature, retain moisture, suppress weeds, and enhance curb appeal.
  • Prune with Precision – Make clean cuts at a slight angle, about ¼ inch from the branch, for healthy regrowth.
  • Timing Matters – Prune in late spring or early autumn for the best results.

Spring – The Season of Growth

  • Ideal time for planting across the country
  • Warmer weather, nutrient-rich soil, and rainfall create perfect conditions for plant growth
  • Treat for lawn pests like grubs
  • Watch out for late frosts that can damage tender plants
  • Lay warm-weather grass sod
  • Check irrigation systems and sharpen gardening tools
  • Plant perennials and annuals
  • Prune spring-blooming shrubs after flowering
  • Aerate the lawn to encourage strong root growth
  • Apply pre-emergent herbicides by early May to control crabgrass

Summer – Keep It Hydrated

  • Water at dawn and dusk to prevent rapid evaporation
  • Know the specific watering needs of your lawn, trees, shrubs, and plants to avoid drought stress or overwatering

Fall – Prepare for Cooler Days

  • Another great planting season
  • Ensure adequate watering as temperatures drop
  • Plant spring-blooming bulbs for a vibrant garden next year
  • Prune once leaves turn and plants enter dormancy
  • Protect delicate plants with burlap if frost damage has been an issue in the past
  • Rake leaves promptly to maintain lawn health

Winter – Plan & Prep for Next Year

  • Prune trees and shrubs to shape and strengthen them
  • Apply post-emergent herbicides to keep your lawn weed-free
  • Plant or transplant trees and shrubs
  • Decide which branches should be removed for better tree structure
  • Avoid pruning spring-blooming plants—wait until after they flower
  • Enrich flower beds with soil conditioner to prepare for spring growth

Keep your landscape healthy and beautiful year-round with these essential seasonal tips.
