Whether you're looking for basic lawn maintenance and mowing techniques, tips for mulching, advice on pruning, and strategies for winterizing your garden, we've got you covered. Plus, we'll provide some lighting tips to turn your lawn into a night-time showstopper with Kichler Landscape Lighting!

Let's start with lawn maintenance and mowing. If you want a healthy lawn, you'll want to mow regularly (maybe once a week or so). Set your blades at the highest setting and never cut more than just a third of the total grass height. Make sure to keep your blades sharp, as this will help your lawn look tidy.

Now let's talk mulching. Most of us know that adding mulch to your beds and around trees helps them stay healthy and declutter your landscape. But did you know that the type of mulch you choose is also important? The best type of mulch is one that's composed of smaller particles that will break down quickly and provide your plants with essential nutrients.

Next up is pruning. Pruning is an important part of maintaining your shrubs and trees, as it keeps them healthy and looking neat. Remember to always prune in the early spring, as this will give your plants ample time to recover and grow in the summer. Be sure to use the right tools for the job - and, of course, don't forget to get rid of the clippings afterwards!

Finally, let's discuss winterizing your garden and plants. Before the fall and winter months come around, you'll want to take some steps to ensure your plants are prepared for cold weather. This includes adding extra mulch to protect your plants' roots and trimming back or pruning away any dead or dying branches.

No matter how hard you work on your garden and lawn, there's one last step to make your landscaping shine in the dark: lighting. Kichler Landscape Lighting is a great way to bring your outdoor space to life. Kichler offers a variety of spotlights, path lights, and hanging lights to light up any area of your yard or garden.
