Follow these tips to protect your landscape from winter’s icy grip
The cool, crisp days of autumn are upon us once again — so it’s time to get your lawn and gardens ready before old man winter comes knocking on your door.
Before you get busy with winter activities — such as skiing, sledding or sipping hot cocoa by fire — there are a few things you should do to help your lawn and gardens survive until spring.
To help you get your property ready for winter, the property care team at Brandon Rushing put together this checklist.
Note: If you compost your plant materials, be sure to only include material from healthy plants. Your compost pile doesn’t get hot enough to kill all pathogens and insect pests and they will survive the winter (and be ready to invade your garden in the spring).
It's the beginning of the new season.
By using the checklist above, you’ll protect your lawn and gardens from the harshness of winter and give them a head start in the spring. But we understand not everyone has the time —or desire —to do it themselves.
As always, the team at Brandon Rushing is happy to help. See our property care programs or get a free quote with our online pricing tool.
