Each season brings its own challenges and opportunities for your garden, and staying ahead of the curve is the key to healthy, thriving plants year-round. In spring, it’s all about soil prep—testing pH levels, adding compost, and planting early crops or perennials. Remove dead plants and trim back overgrowth to make room for new growth. Summer is about maintenance—watering deeply, managing weeds, and protecting plants from extreme heat with mulch and shade cloth if needed. It’s also a great time to harvest herbs and vegetables, prune flowering shrubs, and deadhead blooms to encourage more growth. As fall arrives, begin to clean up the garden beds, collect seeds, plant bulbs for spring, and apply a final round of fertilizer to strengthen plants before winter. Winter is the time for rest and planning. Protect sensitive plants with burlap or covers, prune dormant trees, and take notes on what worked (or didn’t) this year. With a little planning and attention, your garden can remain beautiful and productive across all seasons.
