Can I leave leaves on the ground all winter long?

• <div><p>A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.</p></div>

Q: Can you put topsoil over sand to grow grass?

• <div><p>Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots&rsquo; development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.</p></div>

Q: Do rock gardens need water?

• <div><p>Yes, rock gardens do need water. That said, they typically require less regular watering and, instead, more occasional, deep watering since the rocks trap moisture for longer than mulch. Make sure you don&rsquo;t water your rock garden too much during the winter. </p></div>

Q: How is lakefront landscaping professionally designed and maintained?

• <div><p>Professional lakefront landscaping addresses environmental factors such as water level fluctuations, erosion control, and native plant suitability. Regular maintenance includes pruning, fertilization, and ensuring drainage systems function well.</p></div>

Q: When’s the best time to plant a privet hedge?

• <div><p>The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.</p></div>
