Find a place to hike

As temperatures start to increase and the summer growing season begins, here are a few simple things that can keep your landscape in perfect condition
Turfgrass
Warm-season lawns may be fertilized now.
Seeding of warm-season grasses such as bermudagrass, buffalograss, zoysiagrass and centipedegrass is best performed in mid-May through the end of June.
Vegetative establishment of warm-season grasses may continue all of May through June.
Trees and Shrubs
Watch for Bagworms on junipers, Elm leaf beetles on elms and Lace bugs on sycamores and azaleas.
Remove tree wraps during the summer to avoid potential disease and insect buildup.
