Time to Think of Your Landscape, Lawn and Garden as Spring Advances

 It’s time to begin preparations for your landscape, lawn and garden areas for the year.  In order to keep your outdoor spaces looking beautiful it is best to make a good plan.  It is tempting to go out and purchase a variety of plants to plant anywhere you have a place. This is not a good idea since it can detract and reflect a confused look.  Developing a landscape design will map out where to add new plants.  As you develop your landscape plan consider important factors like plant height, size, and color to add interest and depth. You must consider the climate of your area before adding any new plants. For example, a plant that needs lots of sunlight will not thrive in your backyard under the big oak tree, and so on. Be sure to research how to care for the new garden plants. For example, some bulbs need to be planted in a particular time before spring. If they are planted too early, they will die in the ground. Some plants can be high maintenance and others require little or hardly any care throughout the season.

It may be a wise to consider hiring a landscape and lawn company.  A professional landscape firm will develop a landscape maintenance care program including landscape design tailored to your budget.  They will present garden ideas including plants, walkways, paver brick driveways, patios, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, ponds, 4 season color gardens, vegetable gardens, and caring for your entire property – from weekly lawn mowing service to lawn fertilization, weeding, pruning, mulch and more.  When you hire a full service professional landscape company you will in turn truly receive the gift of time to enjoy the outdoors with family and friends.
