LANDSCAPE TIP:

Spring is right around the corner, and with spring comes a sense of relief from the punishing winter weather. Many people celebrate by “spring cleaning” within their home, but it is also vital to remember the outside of your home. Your lawn needs some special TLC at this time of year if you want a lush, vibrant landscape for the peak of the year.

The summer heat will be punishing to our lawns and special care is needed in the spring to help them survive the drought-ridden months of summer. Just as you would prepare over time for a marathon, your lawn needs to be prepared over time for the punishing heat of summer. Fertilizers are very important when it comes to feeding our lawns and helping them to establish healthy root systems, but caution must be used to apply only the amount of fertilizer needed and the right type of fertilizer. The wrong fertilizer, or even too much of the right fertilizer, can wreak havoc with our lawns, promoting disease and weeds.

Give us a call to get set up on a program to assure that your spring fertilization is applied properly. There is no greater reward than a lush green lawn on which to spend your summer days!
