Lawn Services

One application of crabgrass control, one application of broadleaf weed control, and four applications of organic granular fertilizer to all turf areas to promote healthy vigorous growth.
- Early Spring: we will apply an organic slow-release fertilizer to promote spring green up and recovery from winter stress. This application will include preventative crabgrass control.
- Late Spring: we will apply an organic slow-release fertilizer to prepare your lawn for the summer heat.
- Summer: we will apply an organic slow-release fertilizer to help your lawn fight drought and disease. This application will include a broadleaf weed control.
- Fall: we will continue to feed your lawn with an organic granular slow-release fertilizer to encourage color, thickness, and overall health. This treatment is designed to encourage recovery and green up your lawn. During colder weather, your lawn will need a balanced feeding to recover from the stress of summer. This organic granular slow-release fertilizer is specially formulated to enhance root regeneration and promote a healthier, greener lawn in the spring, and help to prepare your lawn for the long winter ahead.

Questions about Green Edens Maintenance

It means that we care for the environment and all living components within it, so we perform all of our maintenance services in a way that avoids the use of chemicals, reduces pollution, prevents water waste and won’t harm plants, people, wildlife or pets.
To keep it clean and lush, once per week is best.
Scheduling maintenance less frequently could quickly lead to an overgrowth of weeds and other issues that could threaten the health of your garden and result in increased maintenance costs over time.
Yes, absolutely! It’s important that your plants receive the nutrients they need to grow to full size and remain healthy for years to come. We amend soil when your garden is installed, but those nutrients will eventually be depleted, so feeding your lawn and garden periodically should be a part of your maintenance plan.
Leaf mulch is made from shredded, decaying leaves which break down faster than other types of mulch and provide key nutrients to your trees, shrubs and plants. Regular applications of leaf mulch help to build healthy soil, which will keep your garden healthy over the long term, too.
