Des Moines Landscaping Calendar
Once the snow melts, it’s time to start up your Des Moines landscaping routine.
If you want to keep your Des Moines landscape looking its best — why wouldn’t you? — follow this calendar.
Spring:
- Lawn Care: Mowing season in Des Moines typically starts in March.
- Irrigation: Des Moines lawns should get 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week, ideally spread over two waterings. Late spring is a great time to install a sprinkler system because the soil is thawed and easy to work in.
- Hardscaping: Spring is the ideal time of year to install new hardscapes or work on your fence’s wooden structures. However, it may be more expensive or harder to schedule.
- Mulch: Apply or reapply mulch early in the spring, right after the last frost.
- Shrub Pruning: Prune shrubbery in early spring or late winter while it’s still dormant.
- Planting: Des Moines’ growing season lasts from mid-May to mid-October.
Summer:
- Lawn Care: Cool-season grasses slow their growth in summer and may go dormant if the weather is especially hot and dry. Reduce your mowing and watering schedule accordingly and stop altogether during dormancy.
- Landscape Lighting: As the season starts to warm up, enjoy your outdoors for longer with some new landscape lighting.
Fall:
- Lawn Care: A period of high growth for cool-season lawns. Increase your mowing and watering schedule
- Leaf Cleanup: The leaves will fall in Des Moines in early October.
- Fertilization: The best time of year to fertilize in Des Moines is in mid-September and once again in October.
- Planting: Plant bulbs in fall for spring blooms next year.
- Hardscaping: Your last chance to get a new landscape feature before temperatures drop.
Winter:
- Lawn Care: Dormant season for most lawns. Cease all mowing, fertilization, and watering.
