Creating Curb Appeal Year-Round
Maintaining your yard throughout the year is essential for creating lasting curb appeal and a welcoming outdoor space. Landscaping and outdoor care require consistent attention through all seasons to keep your property looking its best. This guide will outline easy-to-follow tips for year-round landscaping that enhances your home’s beauty and value.
Spring and Summer: Grow and Maintain
Spring is the perfect season to refresh your garden and prepare for vibrant summer growth. Start by cleaning up debris, pruning shrubs, and planting new flowers or shrubs that thrive in warmer weather. During summer, water plants deeply but infrequently to encourage strong root growth, and mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Regular mowing and lawn edging help maintain tidy curb appeal. Watch for pests and treat early to protect plants.
Fall and Winter: Prepare and Protect
In fall, focus on leaf removal, aerating your lawn, and applying fall fertilizer to promote healthy grass roots. Plant fall bulbs or perennials for colorful blooms in the coming months. As winter approaches, protect vulnerable plants with covers or mulch to insulate roots. Prune dormant trees and shrubs to prevent damage and encourage healthy growth in spring. Regularly clear snow or debris from hardscaping features like walkways and patios to maintain safe, attractive outdoor spaces.
Year-Round Care Tips
- Monitor your irrigation system to ensure efficient watering tailored to each season.
- Keep pathways and outdoor living areas clean and free of debris for a polished look.
- Regularly inspect plants for signs of disease or damage and treat promptly.
