Early Spring declared on Groundhog Day 2020
Today was the day most of us watched Punxsutawney Phil, watching to see if he would run and hide from his shadow or not. The great news is that he did not see his shadow, predicting an early spring. This means that we need to start thinking about what we need to do for spring.
You can prevent winter lawn fungal disease! You will want to make sure that your lawn is cleaned up prior to the first real snow accumulation occurs. Many different types of lawn diseases happen in the winter because we are not doing proper fall cleanup. I know you might think it is too late, but it truly is not!
First, make sure you have your landscape prepared so that it will withstand the winter weather that is coming. You want to get all your outdoor plants cleaned up and trimmed down. Make sure all your leaves are cleaned up off your lawn.
The preparation of plants in the fall for winter is very important if you want them to withstand the cold months. Make sure you have a layer of mulch down to act as a barrier from the cold for their root systems. Making sure to care for your plants in the fall will help them to be beautiful again in the spring!
