New York City Landscaping by Season
In New York, roof-decks, vertical gardens, shaded courtyards, and pocket lawns all live under four dramatic seasons. You’ll need to time mowing, leaf pickup, perennial planting, and sprinkler blow‑outs right; knock each chore out before the weather flips.
Here’s what to tackle year-round:
Summer
- Lawn Care: Mow weekly, never cutting more than one-third of the blade height to prevent stress.
- Watering: Use deep, infrequent cycles, ideally early morning, so roots grow strong.
- Planting: Introduce heat-tolerant annuals like salvias and ornamental grasses.
- Fencing and Lighting: Repair or install fences; add landscape lighting for evening ambiance.
Fall
- Lawn Care: Mowing season ends when the ground first shows signs of frost (typically in November).
- Leaf Cleanup: Clear leaves to prevent mold and maintain curb appeal. Hire a leaf removal pro to do it for you.
- Planting Bulbs: Plant daffodils and tulips in October for spring blooms.
- Mulch: Add mulch before the first frost to insulate roots.
- Irrigation Winterizing: Drain and protect sprinkler lines against freeze damage.
- Hardscaping: Mild weather is perfect for patios, decks, and fence maintenance.
Winter
- Shrub Pruning: Prune dormant shrubs and small trees to shape them before spring sap flow.
- Evergreen Accents: Incorporate pines, junipers, and red twig dogwoods for year-round structure and color.
- Hardscape Care: Shovel snow promptly from walkways to preserve stone and concrete.
Spring
- Lawn Care: Mowing season begins when the grass starts growing, around late March or early April.
- Planting: Hardy perennials and cool-season plants can be planted by mid-spring.
- Mulch: Add 2 to 3 inches of mulch around beds to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
- Pruning: Trim flowering shrubs after they bloom.
- Irrigation: Install or check automated systems before the busy season.
- Hardscaping: Build patios, pathways, and seating areas early to enjoy them all summer.
- Landscape Lighting: Add lighting to current or newly installed walkways and other hardscapes.
- Fencing: Install a fence when the ground is soft.
