Rochester Landscaping Trends and Projects by Season
Rochester homeowners don’t play around when it comes to landscaping. They make the most of the spring, summer, and fall and use the winter to focus on planning, designing, and budgeting.
Despite the seven feet of annual snowfall, there are still a lot of cold-hardy plants and hardscape options to make your Flower City landscape breathtaking.
Rochester Landscaping Trends
- Native plants: Purple coneflower, serviceberry, New England aster, and bee balm shrug off lake-effect snow and feed pollinators.
- Sustainable drainage: Rain gardens and permeable pavers soak up heavy spring rains and snowmelt.
- Outdoor living: Fire pits, covered patios, and hot tubs stretch backyard season well into fall.
- Low-maintenance designs: Cold-hardy perennials and deep mulch beds mean fewer weekends pushing a mower.
Rochester Landscaping by Season
Yard work never ends here, but it doesn’t have to overwhelm you. This seasonal calendar spells out the timing for all the popular landscaping projects in Rochester.
Spring
- Lawn Care: Mowing resumes in late April or early May when the grass is actively growing.
- Mulch: Freshen up your landscaping beds during the spring.
- Planting: If the snow is gone and the ground has thawed, you can plant in mid-March. However, to be safe, wait until the air temperature is consistently above 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Shrub Pruning: Prune to promote new growth
- Irrigation: Turn on your sprinkler systems in mid or early June.
- Hardscaping: Begin installing patios, walkways, and other hardscape features after the ground warms up around mid-May.
- Landscape Lighting: Install your lighting to prepare for late summer nights.
Summer
- Lawn Care: Routine mowing keeps your grass healthy. Also, water following Rochester’s watering guidelines.
- Irrigation: This is a great time to install a sprinkler system and/or a drip hose for your gardens and trees.
- Landscape Lighting: Inspect lighting fixtures for cracked lenses and damaged wiring. Fencing: The soil temperature during summer is perfect for installing that new fence. Also, make repairs and/or paint/stain any existing wood fences.
Fall
- Lawn Care: The mowing season wraps up at the end of October or early November.
- Leaf Cleanup: Rake and bag leaves, or hire a local leaf removal crew.
- Mulch: Mulch helps insulate the plant's roots for winter.
- Planting: A good time to plant trees is September. Cut back perennials and plant bulbs now so they bloom in the spring.
- Irrigation: Blow out and winterize your system before October ushers in freezing weather.
- Hardscaping: Wrap up hardscaping projects before the first frost hits.
- Landscape Lighting: Add until late September or before the ground freezes.
- Fencing: You can install, repair, paint, and stain until late September.
Winter
- Hardscaping: Start planning a new patio design or more extensive projects, including sitting walls, a fire pit, and an outdoor kitchen, for spring installation.
- Shrub Pruning: Late winter or early spring.
Whether you need routine lawn care, landscaping help, or simple yard cleanup, LawnStarter’s Rochester landscaping pros have you covered with expert service at prices you’ll love.
