We’re officially halfway through April, and Central Ohio lawns are waking up in full force. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to jump into spring landscaping, this is it.
At Lawn Harmony Landscaping LLC, we’re helping customers across the region get their yards back in shape—and stay that way all season long. If you’re wondering what your property needs right now, here’s a mid-spring checklist to guide you.
✅ 1. Mulch Installation
If your beds still have that faded, weathered mulch from last year (or no mulch at all), now is the perfect time to refresh. Mulch isn’t just for looks—it helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature as spring turns to summer.
Our mulch service includes:
Full bed cleanup & prep
Black mulch (standard) or other colors by request
Delivery and professional installation
Crisp edging for a clean finish
Note: Our April spots are almost full—if you’re planning on mulching this spring, book now to reserve your space.
✅ 2. Spring Cleanups
Winter leaves behind more than just cold weather—it also leaves debris, dead growth, and plenty of lawn clutter. A thorough spring cleanup sets the stage for everything else.
What we remove:
Leaves, sticks, and leftover fall debris
Weeds and overgrowth
Light trimming of shrubs and bushes
Unwanted growth around flower beds and borders
A proper cleanup helps your grass breathe and allows new plants to thrive.
✅ 3. First Few Mows of the Season
Now that your lawn is growing again, keeping up with regular mowing helps strengthen root systems and prevent weeds from taking hold. The first few cuts of the year are critical—cut too short, and you could stress the turf; too high, and you’re inviting uneven growth.
Our mowing service includes:
Weekly or bi-weekly schedules
Proper blade height & sharp tools
Clean edging and professional results
Blow-off of all hard surfaces
✅ 4. Weed Prevention
Now is the time to apply pre-emergents if you haven’t already. These treatments stop weeds like crabgrass before they start. Combined with mulch and consistent mowing, this is one of the most effective ways to keep your lawn and beds clean for months.
We can help advise on the best weed prevention methods—or handle the treatments as part of your spring service package.
✅ 5. Planning Ahead for Beds & Planting
April is a great time to finalize plans for any new flower beds, shrubs, or small garden upgrades. Thinking about adding some spring color or low-maintenance bushes? We can help with both the design and the planting.
Popular spring additions:
Boxwoods
Hydrangeas
Creeping phlox
Pansies, dianthus, and ornamental grasses
