Spring Cleanup

Beds

• We blow-out the leaves and light debris.
• We remove garbage, twigs, and fallen branches.
• We do NOT avoid areas behind bushes and hard-to-reach places.
• We weed the beds, then treat with a weed preventor.

Edging

• We put a fresh edge on all the beds (approximately five inches deep).
• We do not use an mechanical edger: they produces a shallow edge, which quickly breaks down after a few rain storms.
• We edge with a pick shovel: it produces a deeper edge, which looks much more pleasing.
• A deeper edge contains mulch within the bed much better, and holds up under rough weather conditions.
• We always provide a straight line or the proper curve to the bed.

Mulching

• We spread double-processed mulch throughout all beds.
• We DON'T avoid areas behind bushes and hard-to-reach places.

Cleanup

• We dispose of all debris, including edgings, that we collected.
