Tips on How to Plan your Landscape this October
With October in full swing and the Georgia fall weather making us unsure about the season, it’s the best time to make sure that your landscape is prepared and planned for the cold months ahead. We have put together a few key planning points to check off your to-do list:
Winterize your roses: When cold weather heads your way, you need to have your roses protected! Mound the roses with mulch and it will help them survive through winter.
Mulch Your Leaves: Many believe that fallen leaves will insulate your lawn during the winter, but this could actually do more harm than good! Leaves will block vital sunlight and thin your grass making it harder to re-grow in spring. Our suggestion, remove leaves from your lawn and your planting beds weekly.
Start Planting! Late fall is the perfect time to start planting spring- blooming bulbs (daffodil, crocus, hyacinth, tulip, etc.). With soil still warm from summer, it’s perfect time to plant trees and shrubs. Planting in the fall will allow strong roots to develop and allow your plants to become established before our hot summer arrives.
Finished all the hard work and want a little fun? Get crafty and carve a pumpkin! When you are finished, don’t throw everything away, plant the seeds and have your own garden of pumpkins for next season!

I have been with these guys for one whole season. 99.9% of the weeds are gone. The grass has never been so green. They have lived up to their name.

Please let your staff that serviced my lawn aeration and fertilization yesterday know that they did an EXCELLENT JOB! My lawn is doing better than it ever has. And because of them and the rest of the techs that come out to my house, I'll remain a loyal customer of Simply Green. Great job!

I just had another comment this morning on how good our fescue lawn looks, which happens several times a week. I walked out in our back yard this AM and couldn't believe it was the same yard as what I dealt with last year. We have a good lawn maintenance crew that takes care of mowing and edging, and we have a good company that takes care of weeding, feeding, and shrubbery & trees. I enjoy telling friends and neighbors about your service. Thank you and keep up the good work!

Happened to be home and Ben was treating the yard. He took meticulous care in the treatment. Please convey my thanks to him.
