When should I have my bushes trimmed.
A: The best time to trim your bushes depends on the type of shrub and its blooming cycle. In general, most shrubs should be trimmed during their dormant season—typically in late winter or early spring—before new growth begins. This allows you to shape the bush while encouraging healthy growth for the upcoming season.
For flowering bushes, it's important to consider their blooming period:
Spring-blooming bushes (like lilacs or azaleas) should be trimmed right after they finish blooming, usually in late spring or early summer, to avoid cutting off next season’s flowers.
Summer-blooming bushes (such as butterfly bush or spirea) are best pruned in early spring before new growth starts, ensuring they have plenty of time to develop new blooms.
Regular trimming also helps maintain the shape and size of your bushes, promoting better air circulation and reducing the risk of disease. If you're unsure of the best time for your specific plants, we’d be happy to assess your landscape and provide expert advice.
What can I do to keep my lawn looking lush all summer?
Keeping your lawn lush and vibrant through the hot summer months requires a combination of proper care, regular maintenance, and smart lawn practices. Here are a few key tips to maintain a healthy lawn all season long:
Water Deeply and Consistently: During the summer, grass needs about 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week. Water deeply to encourage deep root growth, but avoid frequent, shallow watering. Early mornings are the best time to water to reduce evaporation and prevent fungal diseases.
Mow Regularly and at the Right Height: Keep your mower blades sharp and avoid cutting more than one-third of the grass height at a time. During summer, it’s ideal to mow your grass a bit higher (around 3-4 inches), which helps shade the soil and reduces water loss.
Fertilize Appropriately: Apply a slow-release, balanced fertilizer in late spring or early summer to ensure your lawn has the nutrients it needs for sustained growth. Avoid fertilizing during the hottest part of summer, as it can stress your lawn.
Aerate Your Lawn: Lawn aeration, done in late spring or early summer, helps to alleviate soil compaction and improves water and nutrient penetration. It’s especially beneficial for lawns that receive heavy foot traffic.
Control Weeds and Pests: Regularly check your lawn for weeds and pests that can drain nutrients. Use pre-emergent weed control in early spring and spot-treat weeds throughout the summer to keep them under control.
Overseed if Needed: If your lawn has bare patches or thinning areas, consider overseeding in late summer or early fall to promote thicker, healthier grass growth.
By following these practices, your lawn will stay lush, green, and resilient throughout the summer heat. If you need assistance with lawn care, we’re here to help you achieve the lawn of your dreams.
