Clean Up: Remove debris, dead branches, and any leftover fall leaves.
-
Soil Preparation: Test and enrich your soil with compost or organic fertilizers.
-
Planting: Start planting hardy perennials, shrubs, and early vegetables like peas, lettuce, and spinach.
-
Mulching: Apply mulch to retain moisture and prevent weed growth.
🌼 Let Viking Landscaping help you design vibrant spring garden beds bursting with color and texture.

Summer brings sunshine, longer days, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy your outdoor space—but it also requires vigilant maintenance.
Summer Garden Tips:
-
Water Wisely: Water deeply in the early morning or late evening to avoid evaporation.
