On January mornings when you wake, you'll notice frost on the ground. No big deal, right? Not exactly. When frost strikes overnight it's not fickle. It will settle anywhere it can, especially on your beautifully groomed lawn. Frost is not our friend. It will encapsulate and freeze each individual blade of grass you have. When you walk across the grass (this includes dogs too) the blades will break. What's so bad about that? Well, when the blades break, they'll begin to yellow and it won't be long before you'll see evidence all over your lawn. If this happens repeatedly, it could lead to the turf dying off in those places. Good news though...as soon as the sun has had time to shine, it can melt the frost. Then you, your family and Fido can frolic on the lawn to your heart's content.
Snow Is A 4 Letter Word
To some people, snow is certainly a 4 letter word. Not to us! We love the outdoors and that includes snow days. There is plenty of snow in our long range forecast, with some predictions calling for more accumulation and more frequency than last year. Large amounts of snow have the potential to damage trees and fragile shrubs. What should you do? Be mindful about your landscape when the snow comes. If we experience heavy (dense) snow, get outside with a broom and knock the snow off the canopies of trees and tops of shrubs.
Do you hate the cold and snow? We can help with our snow removal services. Call or email rawlings.cumbea@crosscreeknursery.com today to make arrangements!
