Wake Up Your Property with a Spring Cleanup

LaRosa-L106-Blog-Feature-1388x572

The snow is melting and spring has arrived. The plants are starting to wake up so it’s time to start thinking about a spring cleanup for your yard. Typically, this work begins in April and continues through early May. Now is the time to:

  • Remove leaves and winter debris from plant beds.
  • Rake the lawn where there is evidence of damage caused by voles, salt damage or snow mold.
  • Cut back ornamental grasses or perennials that were left standing for winter interest.
  • Prune back shrubs, such as spirea, hydrangea and roses.
  • Prune tree or shrub branches damaged by storms.
  • Edge plant beds for a clean, crisp appearance.
  • Apply hardwood mulch.

Shredded hardwood mulch builds soil structure, provides a buffer for fluctuations in moisture and temperature, and facilitates weed control.
