Weed eating around the edges will make your lawn look better. I find it really makes a difference!
My hubby handles the lawn and starts by doing maintenance on our equipment, filling in bare patches , pulling weeds and putting out mulch.
This would look so cute in my yard. Great accent for a small perennial bed.
I would say to fertilize,water and mow.
Enjoy it! I love sitting outside just looking at everything being green!
We rake up any leftover leaves and sprinkle lawn fertilizer
My boyfriend takes care of the lawn care. I love how he mows rows as diagonal and looks so great. A few neighbors have copied his technique
TODAY….IT IS NICE AND WARM AND I WILL SAY JUST GO OUTSIDE AND ENJOY THE WEATHER AND THE GREEN GRASS. IT IS NOT RAINING.
We make sure to rake everything again since more leaves had fallen since the fall. Then we mow and put down grass seed in patchy areas. We have already weeded the yard as well and it’s looking good!
Planning to aerate the lawn this week!
I live in a condo where everything is done for me.
Tune up your mower. Change the oil. Clean the top and undercarriage
Fertilize early in the spring and water when necessary but don’t over water.
Apparently I can’t spell haha, I meant to say we MOW every few days.
We move every few days to keep it looking nice and tidy.
mow often and keeps the weeds eliminated
Tune up your mower. Change the oil. Clean the top and undercarriage.
DON’T LET YOUR GRANDCHILDREN PICK ALL THE FLOWERS….JUST 1/2 OF THEM.
Don’t over water and fertilize in early spring and late fall.
I rake the lawn in the fall , and use wood chips to cover the soil around the plants. So when spring arrives, all I have to do is smell the flowers.
PAINTING SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT NEED TO BE PAINTED.
When re-seeding, water daily, but don’t overwater!
MY FAVORITE TIP IS TO WEED THE FLOWERS AND THEN GO OUT EVERYDAY AND LOOK AT THEIR BEAUTY.
When re-seeding, use a good quality seed. Cheaper seed usually results in poor results and lots of weeds!
I save boxes and flatten them and fold them to kneel on when I’m gardening. Then when I’m done I throw it away.
ALWAYS FERTILIZE YOUR FLOWERS AND YOUR LAWN.
PULL THE WEEDS OUT OF YOUR FLOWERS DAILY.
Seed the bare spots early in the Spring to give the new grass time to take root and get established before the weather gets too hot!
Get rid of the weeds regularly. The longer you let them go, the worse they get and the harder they are to keep under control.
beware grass planted spreads and competes with native plants for space
Perennials are great for people who want to spend less time and money.
I fertilize the garden
Cut the grass when it’s needed, but don’t cut it too short, especially in hot weather.
We mow our lawn weekly. It looks better and keeps the weeds down 😉
I love my rose bushes!
Mulch right after you are done weeding.
My lawn tip is after you seed your lawn, put straw or hay on top of it,
I spruce up my yard by raking and pulling the dead stuff. Then plant both annual and perennial flowers.
My favorite spring lawn tip is beautiful flowers for lots of color and bird feeders filled with seed for the birds. I love to watch them!
adding lots of water when needed! 😉
I have solar lights along the walkway.
I always love having flowers for bursts of color!
I use natural lawn fertilizer.
MOWING THE GRASS.
I like perennials like daffodils and hyacinth.
RAKING AND CLEANING OUT MY FLOWER BEDS.
I love my solar “flaming” tiki torches. They look really cool at night!
My favorite way to spruce up my yard is with birdhouses and bird bath too.
I like to make my yard look better by cleaning up under our trees. Cut down weeds and extra growth, and put down mulch so the trees look nicer.
I like lots of flowers in my yard
I plant flowers to brighten up my yard
I put a bird bath (with a very nice fountain) in our front yard, late last summer. It was wonderful! People walking by would stop to just watch it– it’s a really relaxing and enjoyable thing to see.
After all the snow melts a good raking always spruces up the lawn.
I put out my Precious Moments yard angels.
We de-thatch and weed every spring
My boyfriend takes care of the lawn. He does a great job with seeding and weed control
I am the last person to take lawn advice from. Every time I try to over seed my lawn, I get just as many weeds as I do new grass, then when I try to take care of the weeds, the new grass dies. It has happened to me the last two years.

It’s basic (artificial) pine with about 6-8 pinecones scattered around it, with a large red bow at the bottom.
