Not so fast with those pruning shears
before you prune, make sure it’s the right time of year and the right plant to prune. Many homeowners go nuts in the fall cutting shrubs and perennials down, thinking they are through for the year, which they are in a sense, but still because they need their dormancy it is no license to butchery in the landscape.
Lawn Maintenance – pt 1
Regular aerating with core aerators is a crucial part of lawn maintenance and helps keep your lawn green and healthy. The holes a core aerator makes, provides the soil with room for expansion and fertilizer absorption. It is most often performed in conjunction with seeding. Aeration allows the water direct access to the roots system and encourages deeper roots and thicker turf
