There should be no damage to flowers or emerging foliage, and no protection is needed from short periods of cold through the remainder of winter. - Cold damage is very unlikely for winter flowering shrubs such as witch hazels, or for winter flowering hellebores. - While damage to broad leafed evergreens is unlikely, damage to evergreens such as hollies and laurels from cold temperatures can often not be assessed until warmer weather. Damp soils are advantageous to plants, but some evergreens such as nandinas are likely to show signs of winter damage if temperatures drop below ten degrees. Browned leaves are rarely a problem. - In the event of heavy accumulations of snow or ice, this can be removed by gently nudging branches of trees and shrubs with a rake or broom. Avoid sharp blows that might cause injury. Only branches that are leaning under the weight of ice or snow should be cleaned, and if snow is expected to melt quickly there is no need to take any action. - Landscape designers are often booked for several weeks beginning in early March, so it can be advantageous to schedule an appointment when their calendars aren't filled. | | _____________________________________________________________________ | Contact our lawn and garden maintenance department for a free estimate on any of our services - Mulching and planting bed maintenance - Deer repellent application - Lawn renovations - Lawn and landscape fertilizing and pest control - Weed control in the lawn or planting areas - Organic lawn and garden controls Call or contact us through our website for a free estimate 703-327-5050 301-353-0606 extension 5 | | _____________________________________________________________________ | Lifetime Warranty on trees and shrubs we install Meadows Farms offers the only Lifetime Warranty on installed trees and shrubs in the area. Warranties vary by company, but most replace plants that die within the first year after planting. Meadows Farms does this, but adds warranty protection for plants (excluding labor) for as long as you reside in your home. And more, many pavers for patios and walks are covered by a 5 year warranty on materials and workmanship. We hope that no plants need replacement, but with extreme temperatures and droughts seemingly every year, the long term protection provided by Meadows Farms warranty is increasingly valuable in protecting your investment. | | _____________________________________________________________________ | | 12 month no interest financing available for Landscape installations Looking to update your landscaping?

Even in a mild winter, the foliage of several vigorous hellebores obscures flowers that are nestled beneath, so the best practice is to remove leaves in mid December, before flowers are prominent. This task is rarely accomplished so early in this garden, and on occasion leaves are left without cutting at all. This winter has been quite mild, I say so far, but there's nothing colder in the forecast. With mild temperatures, snowdrops, witch hazels, and hellebores are advancing into bloom weeks ahead of schedule. | | | GREAT PEOPLE WANTED We are currently interviewing for Landscape foremen positions for our Chantilly and Fredericksburg VA locations with openings in our Planting, Hardscaping, and Maintenance departments.
