Here are some summer landscaping essentials.
Keeping your lawn and landscaping looking beautiful in the summer requires some work, but don’t worry. We’re going to walk you through some of the finer points today. The sun, rain, and heat can make summer landscaping maintenance a little tricky if you don’t know what you’re doing. So, are you ready to learn more about it? Well, let’s give it a shot.
Watering your Lawn
Making sure that your lawn remains green and alive is a major part of summer landscaping maintenance. Many people want a lovely lawn year round, but summer is probably when you’re going to be outside enjoying it the most. So, how can you keep it looking fresh? Well, the key is in proper watering. Your lawn should be watered deeply 2 or 3 times a week rather than a little bit every day. When you do water your lawn, you should do it in the morning before the heat of the day hits. You should also make sure that the soil is nice and aerated to achieve the best effects.
Trimming your Trees
Another major summer landscaping item is tree trimming. Making sure that your trees are relieved of their excess branches and dead limbs is going to help them stay strong and attractive. Summer is one of the best times to do this because the air is nice and moist. Dry spells and harsh winter conditions can be harmful to the trees, so take advantage of the humidity. Pruning your trees now is also going to allow them to get more sunlight and keep them from getting overrun by disease, so it’s definitely worth the effort.
