Your Spring Garden Checklist for Wellington Properties

Spring is the busiest time in a Wellington garden. Everything starts growing at once, and a bit of work now saves a much bigger job later. Here's a simple checklist to get your property sorted for the season.

1. Get on top of the lawn

Grass takes off in spring. Start mowing regularly now rather than letting it get away — a tidy lawn is far easier to keep than a jungle you have to recover.

2. Prune and shape the hedges

A spring trim encourages healthy, dense growth and keeps hedges in shape through the growing season. It's also the time to cut back anything that got leggy over winter.

3. Clear the gutters before the pollen and leaves build up

Winter storms leave plenty behind. A spring clear sets you up for the drier months and catches any damage early.

4. Freshen up the beds

Weed the garden beds, top up the mulch to lock in moisture for summer, and the whole garden instantly looks cared-for.

5. Wash off winter's grime

A house and path wash lifts the moss and film that built up over winter — perfect timing if you're thinking of selling, or just want the place looking its best for summer entertaining.
