Trim dead or damaged branches and shape overgrown plants. Avoid heavy pruning on spring bloomers until after they flower.
Clean edges give your beds a crisp, professional look and help contain mulch.
Add a fresh 2–3 inch layer to suppress weeds, retain moisture, and boost curb appeal. Avoid piling it against plant stems.
Plant spring annuals (like pansies, snapdragons, petunias) or bulbs (tulips, daffodils) for instant color.*
A soil test can guide fertilizer needs and pH adjustments. Most extension offices or garden centers offer kits.
Use lawn clippings, leaves, and kitchen scraps to create nutrient-rich compost for later in the season.

Spring is a critical time for trees as they come out of dormancy and prepare for a new season of growth. Here’s how to give them the best start:
Spring is a good time to shape trees and remove:
Note: Avoid heavy pruning of spring-blooming trees until after they flower.
Even mature trees benefit from deep watering during dry spells, especially if winter was dry.
Tip: Water slowly at the base, early in the morning—2" of water weekly is a good target.
Add a 2–4 inch layer of mulch around the base (but not touching the trunk) to:
Think of a mulch “donut,” not a volcano.
If trees show signs of nutrient deficiency (like yellowing leaves or stunted growth), apply a slow-release, tree-safe fertilizer in early spring.
Warm weather brings bugs—catch infestations early! Look for:
If you're adding new trees to your yard, spring is ideal—cooler weather helps roots establish before summer heat kicks in.

Healthy flowers start with healthy soil:
Mix it up for non-stop color:
Think about bloom times, sun exposure, and height to layer in color and texture.
Add nectar-rich plants like:
They attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds—and look beautiful doing it.
A 2–3 inch layer of mulch:
Keep mulch 1–2 inches away from plant stems to prevent rot.
Water deeply a couple of times a week—especially after planting.
A birdbath, decorative trellis, or garden statue can elevate your bed and make it pop.

Caring for your lawn and landscape in our area requires specific attention to the unique climate and soil conditions of the region.
Choose plants for your landscape that are well-adapted to the arid conditions of our Texas climate. Native and drought-tolerant species can thrive with less water. Regularly check and adjust sprinkler heads to ensure efficient water distribution. This is crucial for preventing overwatering or underwatering in different areas of your landscape. Given the windy conditions of our region, consider installing windbreaks or barriers to protect delicate plants from strong winds. Strategically plant trees or install structures to provide shade for sensitive plants during the hottest parts of the day. Remember to stay informed about local weather conditions and adjust your lawn and landscape care practices accordingly. Customizing your approach based on the specific needs of your property will lead to a healthier and more resilient outdoor space. Explore xeriscaping principles, which focus on water-efficient landscaping. Use rocks, drought-tolerant plants, and water-saving techniques to create a low-maintenance landscape.
