Owners may not realize their lawns need care in the winter, as well as, the summer months. Growth slows, but it may still need cutting and watering. To save on utilities timers should be added to the sprinkler system.

Colder temperatures are an ideal time for some cold weather plants that flower well into winter. Later in the season is also an ideal time to prune back hedges and shrubs. Plants do not tolerate cuttings as well in extreme heat.

Cutting back too much can stunt the growth so be careful. Protect the delicate stems and roots from the cold, as well.

Some plants like the Hydrangea will look great all year without pruning. The plant will produce new growth off the old. The flowers will be bigger as it develops in size. After going dormant, less water is needed.

Some trees and vegetation do not shed their leaves until new ones develop. The dead foliage can be removed over the winter or early spring. Make sure all varieties have adequate sunlight even in the winter.

Clippings and ground up plant material can be used to mulch around plants. This acts as a blanket against the coming cold. Splitting and transplanting certain plants can now be done, as well. Simply dig up the roots or bulbs and store or plant in another location.

Many varieties can be planted in the cold weather. This allows the species to adapt to transplanting without the extremes of summer. They will still need care and plenty of moisture. When calling your nearby landscaper Westbury consumers will receive tips and advice. landscaper westbury
