Last year, we got great reviews on our wildflower areas. This year, several commented that theses areas look unkempt. Please understand that this is just part of the life cycle of such areas. In a few short weeks, these areas will be brilliant once again. Wild flowers, are nothing more than a collection of weeds. In fact, some of the same weeds we might spray in the rough. It takes time, just like any garden, for flowers to develop and reach their potential.
Below, we even walk the beds and hand weed anything that is undesirable like briars.
Below, another great example of a pruned back mountain laurel that is developing into a beautiful new shrub. Trimming like this is critical to a successful golf course management program.
