As summer comes to an end, preparing landscapes for fall and winter is crucial. Proper care helps increase plants' winter survival and promotes overall health and beauty. Continuing to water as needed is important, especially for new plantings and evergreens.

Removing weeds from gardens and mixed borders is also recommended, as cooler temperatures make the task easier. This helps reduce the number of weeds to pull next year. Lawn care should continue as long as the lawn keeps growing, with leaves and grass clippings left behind after mowing.
