Want to keep your property looking good, even once summer’s warm and sunny weather has gone away? There are plenty of ways you can maintain your landscape in fall that will have your home looking beautiful for months to come.
One fall landscaping tip is probably fairly obvious to you already: rake your leaves! Not only is this a fun family activity (remember jumping into leaf piles when you were little?) but it can ensure that your grass stays healthy. Grass buried under dead leaves does not get enough sunlight, and so it can turn brown early in the season. Head this off by raking up your leaves.
You can also replace your summer blooms with colorful fall-friendly flowers, such as mums. These will be able to withstand color temperatures while keeping your garden beautiful.
In fall, we begin to experience fewer and fewer hours of daylight. An outdoor lighting feature or floodlights can help maximize the time you get to spend outdoors, plus as an added bonus, they provide extra safety and security to your home.
All in all, it doesn’t take much to keep your home looking sensational, no matter what the season.
