SEASONAL LANDSCAPING TIPS FROM GA SUPREME'S GREEN THUMB PROFESSIONALS

As the seasons change, so do the needs of your landscaping. At GA Supreme Landscaping, our team of Green Thumb professionals is here to provide you with some helpful tips to keep your outdoor space looking its best year-round.Spring:

1. Clean Up: Start the season by cleaning up any debris that has accumulated over the winter, such as fallen branches or leaves. This will help your lawn breathe and encourage new growth.

2. Pruning: Trim back any dead or overgrown branches on your trees and shrubs to promote healthy growth. Be sure to prune any summer-blooming plants before they start budding.

3. Fertilize: Spring is the perfect time to fertilize your lawn and plants to give them a boost after the long winter months.

Summer:

1. Watering: During the hot summer months, it's essential to water your lawn and plants regularly. Early morning or late evening is the best time to water to prevent evaporation.

2. Mulching: Add a layer of mulch around your plants to help retain moisture and suppress weeds. This will also give your landscaping a polished look.

3. Pest Control: Keep an eye out for any signs of pests or disease in your plants. Regularly inspecting your landscaping can help you catch any issues early.

Fall:

1. Raking: As the leaves start to fall, make sure to keep up with raking to prevent them from smothering your lawn. You can also consider mulching the leaves with your lawnmower for added nutrients.

2. Planting: Fall is an excellent time to plant new trees, shrubs, and perennials. The cooler temperatures and increased rainfall help new plants establish themselves.

3. Aeration: Consider aerating your lawn in the fall to reduce compaction and promote healthy root growth. This will help your grass thrive come spring.

Winter:

1. Protecting: Before the first frost, be sure to protect any delicate plants by covering them with burlap or bringing them indoors. This will help them survive the harsh winter temperatures.

2. Snow Removal: Keep your walkways and driveways clear of snow and ice to prevent accidents. Use a snowblower or shovel to maintain your property's safety.

3. Pruning: Winter is a great time to prune your trees and shrubs while they are dormant. Be sure to remove any dead or diseased branches to promote healthy growth.
