Now that it’s August, it’s time to start thinking about end-of-summer landscape maintenance. Even with the summer coming to an end, you can still enjoy your beautiful outdoor space. First, you just need to know what to look for and the proper ways to manage parts of your landscaping. These late summer landscaping tips will keep your landscaping look healthy well into the fall.

Keeping It Green

Just because the summer is ending you don’t have to let go of your beautiful summer lawn. With vigilance and the proper tools, you can keep your lawn looking fresh. When late summer rolls around, you have more lawn dangers to look out for than you do in other parts of the year. Late summer is the perfect breeding time for weeds, such as crabgrass. Also, be on the lookout for pests and fungal diseases. If unsure of what to look for, having a trusted lawn care service look after your lawn is the best defense against lawn issues.

Cleaning It Up

Amp up your home’s curb appeal by keeping the landscaping looking trimmed and tidy. With the weather starting to cool down a bit, it’s the perfect time to get out your garden supplies and get to work. Whatever parts of your yard that have started to look dried out and dead should be cut back to prepare for new growth.

Pruning Like A Pro

Pruning may seem like a harsh and scary gardening task, but with the right research and tools, you can prune your plants like a pro. If you’re still worried about butchering your delicate plants, hiring a professional landscaping service will give you total peace of mind. By cutting your plants and flowers back properly, the new growth could enhance your plants by looking healthier, fuller, and thicker.
