Spring is a time of renewal and growth, making it the perfect opportunity to refresh your landscape. Start by cleaning up any debris left over from winter and pruning any shrubs or trees that need it. Consider adding some colorful annuals or perennials to brighten up your beds, and make sure to give your lawn some extra TLC with a good fertilization and aeration.

Summer is all about enjoying the outdoors, so it's important to create a space that you can relax and unwind in. Make sure to water your plants regularly, especially during hot weather, and add some mulch to help retain moisture and keep weeds at bay. Consider adding some outdoor lighting to extend your outdoor enjoyment into the evening hours.

Fall is a time of transition, and your landscaping should reflect that. Start by cleaning up any fallen leaves and dead plants to prevent disease and pests from taking hold. Consider planting some fall-blooming flowers or ornamental grasses to add a pop of color to your yard. Don't forget to fertilize your lawn one last time before winter sets in.

Winter is a time to give your landscape a rest and focus on maintenance tasks. Make sure to protect any delicate plants from frost by covering them with burlap or a frost cloth. Keep walkways clear of snow and ice to prevent accidents, and take the time to plan out any changes or additions you want to make in the spring.
