5 Spring Gardening Tips

LinkedIn

Hello spring! We are looking forward to a warm week ahead! So we can’t help but get excited about our spring gardens! Check out these 5 tips to give your yard a refresh.

  • CHECK YOUR TOOLS: Whether you have a garden shed or just a few small tools it’s time to take stock of what you need for your outdoor projects. Prep and planting is easier with the right tools. So check all your tools and make a list of anything you may need.
  • CLEAN OUT DEBRIS: Remove dead tree branches and prune shrubs. Spend the next few weeks filling up your green waste so you are not having to do it all at once. If you have larger trees consider calling an arborist for a tree health check-up, and/or give Simply Trees for an annual tree trimming.
  • REFRESH YOUR SOIL: Understand what type of soil you have so that you can add any supplements or compost to improve its health.
  • MAKE A PLAN: Identify plants that work well in your yard (part sun, full sun, etc). If you want to replace anything, consider drought resistant plants and visit your Alden Lane Nursery for ideas.
  • PLANTING PERFECTION: Once you get your plants in place add a fresh layer of mulch to give your yard a clean and finished look while also suppressing weeds and retaining moisture.
Okay…get your garden growing! And remember to share your beautiful gardens and yards in the Love Livermore Facebook Group.
