What is included in garden maintenance?
Maintaining a garden is a lot of work and some jobs even require craftsmanship. It can therefore be nice to call in a skilled gardener for a certain job or for seasonal maintenance of the garden. Read below what KOKOMO GARDENS can help you with. This list is not exhaustive. So if you have a project for which you need a skilled gardener, feel free to contact us and we can see what is possible. KOKOMO GARDENS will also visit you if you need advice.
Pruning trees and shrubs
With the knowledge and skills of KOKOMO GARDENS, trees and shrubs are pruned in the right season and in the right way. Not every tree can be pruned in the same season. For example, there are a number of fruit trees that like to be pruned in the winter and the ABC trees in the summer. It is also important that you prune the right amount of branches so that a beautiful shape remains in the tree or shrub and that you do not ask too much for the tree or shrub to recover.
Planting and replanting
Have you had a planting design made and do you want to plant it in the garden? KOKOMO GARDENS plants the desired plants or replants the existing ones in your garden. We have extensive plant knowledge and we therefore know exactly where which plants can be placed in the garden. If your existing plants don't do well in your garden, KOKOMO GARDENS can also look if it might do better in another place in the garden. Whether a plant does well in the garden depends, among other things, on the number of hours of sunshine, the amount of wind and moisture and the soil quality.
Lawn maintenance and fertilization
A lawn needs all kinds of maintenance. The state of your lawn depends on the condition of the grass. For example, a young lawn needs a lot of water, a lawn in the shade has more moss to remove than a lawn in the sun, and a lawn with bare spots can be reseeded.
Lawn maintenance includes:
- lay new lawn
- aerate
- seeding and reseeding lawn
- mow
- water lawn
- fertilize lawn
- cut off the edges of the grass
- remove weeds
​
Does your lawn need any of the above or do you need advice on the condition of the grass? Contact KOKOMO GARDENS to discuss the possibilities.
Weeding
Weeds don't really exist, because every plant is fantastic. But sometimes there are plants in the garden that you didn't plant yourself that are invasive or that absorb nutrients from the plants you did choose yourself. We call this weed. And in the spring and summer, these weeds can sometimes proliferate. Can't see the overview anymore or don't know what the weeds are in your garden? KOKOMO GARDENS will come and weed your weeds. This also includes removing bamboo. Bamboo is incredibly beautiful, but it also proliferates. If you're not paying attention, it's all over the garden. Furthermore, removing the grass between the tiles is also part of weeding.
Small street work
The construction of a terrace or street work is actually no longer garden maintenance, but rather falls under landscaping. Nevertheless, small repair work can fall under garden maintenance. For example, if a path or terrace has subsided due to a heavy rain shower and only a small part needs to be repaired, it falls under garden maintenance.
Spring and autumn maintenance
In the spring and autumn there is a lot of work in the garden that can be done in one go. Think of pruning trees and plants, maintaining the lawn, planting annual plants, removing leaves and branches, cleaning terrace and tiles, covering or cleaning garden furniture, cleaning gutters and everything else that specifically needs to be done in your garden.
Cleaning, emptying or clearing gardens
Are you moving and do you want your garden to look neat for the photo? Or does your garden need to be cleared because you have a swimming pool installed or something else is going to change in the structure of your garden? Contact KOKOMO GARDENS for the possibilities if you want your garden cleaned, cleared or tidy.
