Spring Explosion

After such a sweet, winter sleep, spring feels like a bonanza.  Everything starts growing-- with gusto!  Early on in Spring, Rooted Landscaping usually feels fairly sleepy too.  A few of our customers call to schedule clean-ups and make deposits.

And then it hits.  We get spring rains followed by lots of sun.  All the plants wake up and grow with a vengeance.  Our phone rings perpetually and the email inbox is full.

A spring clean-up is important.  As you prune trees and shrubs, weed, and put down compost you are creating the circumstances to maintain optimal health for the land and plants surrounding your home.  When we feel overwhelmed by our yards we tend to run and hide from them.  The land around your home can be such a source of pleasure and peace.

Set yourself up to fully enjoy it.  Think now about any important events coming up this spring.  Is anyone in your family graduating?  Will you have guests over for Seder or Easter?  Do you plan a gathering for Mother's or Father's Day?  If you answered yes to any of these questions you should schedule your clean-up for a few days before your event.  Schedule it now!  Before the madness strikes.

What's that phrase about spring?  March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb?  Here comes the lion!
