Clean Up Debris

After not tending to your yard for a few months, there is bound to be some cleanup necessary. Before spring rolls around, remove damaged plants and broken branches from your yard to make way for new landscaping. You can also empty outdoor planters that have been out of commission since the fall, and refresh them with soil and mulch to prepare for new flowers.

Eliminate Weeds

The end of winter is an excellent time to start thinking about weed prevention. When the soil is still cold and weeds haven’t had a chance to fully grow their roots, pull them out of the ground. Then, apply a weed control treatment to keep them from sprouting up during the spring.

Trim Your Trees & Shrubs

Pruning can be done at any time, even in the snow. It ensures your trees, bushes, and other plants are growing in an even structure so they stay sturdy and strong all season long. Your landscaping contractor can offer advice about which plants need pruning before spring and the proper technique on how to do so.
