Tip 1: Clean Up Fallen Leaves
The first thing you'll want to do is clean up any fallen leaves. This will help prevent the spread of disease and pests, and it will also make your lawn look neater. You can use a rake or a leaf blower to get the job done.
Tip 2: Prune and Trim
While many plants are dormant in winter, it's still a good time to do some pruning and trimming. This will help encourage new growth in the spring and prevent your plants from becoming overgrown. Be sure to research the specific needs of your plants before pruning, as some require different techniques.
Tip 3: Mulch Your Plants
Mulching is a great way to protect your plants from the harsh winter weather. It will help insulate the soil, retain moisture, and suppress weeds. Apply a layer of mulch around the base of your plants, but be sure to keep it away from the stems.
