Preparing for the Cooler Weather Ahead
Dividing perennials
Fall is a great time to consider dividing and replanting perennials around your property, giving them time to reestablish their root systems before the weather gets much colder. Once there are signs of dormancy, such as browning foliage, the plants can be separated and replanted to increase their presence and add beauty to other areas of your landscape. Top with a protective layer of mulch and keep watered to ensure their success as they adapt to their new home. Have the experts at Gerbert & Sons assess and divide your perennials to keep them at a healthy and consistent size, and looking their best year round.
Plan now for the changing seasons
As the warm weather of summer fades into the cooler days of fall, we suggest making arrangements now for a space on our autumn schedule. Our professionals will adjust your irrigation system as the temperature begins to fall, with a thorough assessment for any leaks or cracks that need to be addressed, preventing any further damage and conserving water. We will then determine the best time to perform the final line draining and shut-off, to be ready to welcome the return of spring. Now is also the time to secure your place on our snow removal schedule to keep your property safe when winter once again moves into our area. You may want to consider the advantages of adding a snow and ice melting system to your driveway and walkways, keeping them clear with just a flip of a switch.
