The first frost of fall is on its way, are your plants weather ready? Follow these steps to prevent landscape damage as nighttime temperatures dip below 36°F this week.
--Water and mulch soils around plants and trees, especially for new plantings.
--Bring tender plants inside or cover them with staked bedsheets overnight, then uncover in the morning.
--Unhook garden hoses from spigots and drain them prior to freezing temperatures (32°F) to prevent splits, burst fittings and frozen pipes and back flow devices.
--Don’t walk or drive on green lawns showing frost, or mow or fertilize them.
--Don’t cut spent foliage to the ground for winter—leave at least 12 inches as insulation from wind and cold.
--Wait until spring to prune trees to avoid frost cracking.
