Getting Your Landscaping Ready for Fall

Now is a great time to give your yard some attention before cooler temperatures arrive. A little preparation now can help keep your landscaping looking its best throughout the fall and make your outdoor spaces easier to maintain.

Here are a few simple ways to get started:

  • Clean Up Your Flower Beds
    Remove spent annuals, weeds, fallen leaves, and other summer debris from your flower beds. Trimming back overgrown plants can also give your landscaping a neat, refreshed appearance heading into fall.
  • Add Fresh Mulch
    Fall is a great time to replenish mulch around trees, shrubs, and flower beds. A fresh layer can help insulate plant roots, retain moisture, and provide a clean, finished look to your landscaping.
  • Prune Where Needed
    Take a look at shrubs, hedges, and other plants that have become overgrown. Selective pruning can help maintain their shape and keep them from interfering with walkways, fences, and other outdoor features.
  • Prepare Your Lawn
    Keep your lawn maintained as temperatures begin to cool. Rake leaves regularly, address bare spots, and consider fall fertilization to help your grass stay healthy and prepare for the next growing season.
  • Check Your Fence and Outdoor Areas
    While you’re working around the yard, take a few minutes to inspect your fence, gates, and other outdoor structures. Look for loose boards, leaning sections, or areas that may need attention before winter weather arrives.
