As we enter March and the weather begins to warm up, it is time for some spring landscape prep to get your property and lawn in the best shape for the growing season. The winter months leave behind damaged foliage, debris, fungus, and other harmful deterrents to a productive spring and summer growth and landscaping success. Mansell Landscape has over 25 years of horticulture and landscaping experience and can help get your property ready for spring.
Spring Landscape Tips To Help Revive Your Yard
#1 Rake Away Thatch & Debris
Your grass goes dormant in the winter and dead “thatch” will appear on the top layer of your yard. This dead matter needs to be raked and removed to help the new grassroots breathe and begin to grow. The winter storms also bring about debris from above which can cause fungal diseases and root rot. Be sure to clear out any leaves, sticks, dirt, and build in and around your yard.
#2 Trim Back The Dead
During the winter months, dead limbs and foliage appear in your shrubbery, plants, and trees. Before the new leaves form, cut out all the dead that you can reach. This will help the canopy of the trees and the shape and strength of bushes and plants during the growing season.
#3 Remove The Weeds
Nothing gets in the way of healthy plant growth like insightful weeds. And come early spring, they begin to pop up everywhere in your lawn and property. Inspect all the outdoor areas around your home and remove weeds from the root system. Pulling weeds is the most effective way to rid them from your yard and prevent them from reappearing.
