General Fall Landscaping Tips

Lawn Care

  • Aeration: Aerate your lawn to relieve soil compaction and enhance root growth.

  • Fertilization: Apply a fall fertilizer to provide essential nutrients for the winter months.

  • Leaf Management: Regularly rake and remove fallen leaves to prevent them from suffocating your grass.

Pruning and Trimming

  • Trees and Shrubs: Prune dead or diseased branches to promote healthy growth.

  • Perennials: Cut back spent perennials and mulch them to protect against frost.

Soil Preparation

  • Mulching: Add a layer of mulch to garden beds to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

  • Soil Testing: Test your soil and amend it with necessary nutrients to prepare for spring planting.

Winterizing Equipment
