Essential Summer Landscaping Tips for a Lush Front Yard  


1. Mow High and Often 

Maintaining the right grass height is crucial during the hot summer months.  

  • Set your mower blades to a higher setting to encourage deeper root growth. 

  • Mow regularly, but avoid cutting more than one-third of the grass height at a time. 

  • Leaving grass clippings can help retain moisture and provide nutrients.  


2. Water Wisely 

Proper watering keeps your lawn hydrated without wasting resources.  

  • Water early in the morning to reduce evaporation. 

  • Aim for deep, infrequent watering to encourage strong roots. 

  • Consider installing a drip irrigation system for efficiency.  


3. Mulch for Moisture and Weed Control 

Mulching offers multiple benefits for your garden beds.  

  • Retains soil moisture and regulates temperature. 

  • Suppresses weed growth, reducing competition for nutrients. 

  • Enhances the visual appeal of your landscape.  


4. Incorporate Drought-Resistant Plants 

Choosing the right plants ensures your garden thrives in the heat.  

  • Opt for native or drought-tolerant species that require less water. 

  • Group plants with similar water needs together. 

  • Regularly check for pests and diseases to maintain plant health.  


5. Regular Maintenance and Clean-Up 

Keeping your yard tidy enhances its overall appearance.  

  • Remove dead or diseased plants promptly. 

  • Edge garden beds and walkways for a clean look. 

  • Schedule seasonal clean-ups to prepare for the next season.
