Pittsburgh Landscaping Trends
- Natives: These are native plants that thrive in Pittsburgh and are resilient to wind, floods, and drought.
- Flood Resilience Hardscaping: Incorporating permeable paver walkways, driveways, and patios can enhance water drainage.
- Natural Stone Outdoor Kitchens: Locally sourced quarried stone can minimize transportation emissions, and materials like granite or slate are durable and aesthetically pleasing.
Pittsburgh Landscaping Projects by Season
Pittsburgh landscaping is an all-year endeavor, and this seasonal calendar will help you time these common landscaping projects in the Steel City.
Fall
- Leaf Cleanup: Bag leaves, or hire a local leaf removal crew.
- Mulch: Mulch gardens to protect plants for winter.
- Planting: Cut back perennials and plant bulbs to bloom in the spring.
- Irrigation: Winterize your system before temps dip below 32 degrees.
Winter
- Hardscaping: Plan spring projects now. A simple patio design can take 3 to 4 weeks for a landscape designer to create, while larger projects with sitting walls, a fire pit, and an outdoor kitchen might take several months to finalize.
- Shrub Pruning: Late winter or early spring.
Spring
- Mulch: Add mulch to your gardens. Fresh mulch always looks so good in the spring.
- Planting: The last frost is in late April to mid-May, so feel free to plant everything except annuals (annuals after Mother’s Day).
- Shrub Pruning: Do this in early spring to encourage new growth.
- Hardscaping: Install hardscaping after Mother’s Day. The ground has softened, and your concrete will cure better in warmer temps.
- Landscape Lighting: The soil should be soft enough to dig trenches, place fixtures, and bury wires.
Summer
- Lawn Care: Keep up your weekly mowing schedule.
- Irrigation: Install a sprinkler system and/or a drip hose for your lawn, garden beds, and trees.
- Landscape Lighting: Maintain existing fixtures by checking for cracked lenses and frayed wiring.
- Fencing: Excellent time to install a new fence or maintain an existing one.
If you're looking for landscape design or help with regular lawn care/ landscaping tasks such as weeding flower beds, pruning shrubs, or hardscaping, LawnStarter's Pittsburgh landscaping professionals are just a few clicks away.
