How to Prepare Your Garden Beds for Spring
Quick answer: Before your first visit, clear winter covers and large debris, note any dead plants for crew removal, and flag new planting plans. Your crew will handle debris, cultivate soil, top up mulch, trim perennials, and edge beds.
Before your first visit
Remove any winter covers or protective materials from beds.
Clear large debris — fallen branches, accumulated leaves the crew shouldn't have to haul.
Note any plants that didn't survive winter — your crew can remove dead material.
