Landscaping can be one of the hardest
things for a tenant to maintain, although it is easy to do. By spending twenty
minutes a week on landscaping, you can dramatically change the look of your
home.
Just mowing
your grass can freshen up and add some curb appeal; just yank that pull-cord,
blow on your hands to keep warm and get started (often the hardest part!).
Looking at
your mowed lawn, you might think that your place looks good. But wait! You’re
not finished yet! Your flowerbeds demand attention, too!
What your
flowerbeds need the most is ten minutes of weed killing, whether that be by pulling
or spraying. Both get the job done, but pulling them sure makes it look nice a
lot sooner.
Another thing that you can do is
weed-whacking. It might be a dirty and boring job, but you can chop down a lot
of weeds in such a short amount of time.
Around October
the trees on your property start dropping leaves, the same ones you had enjoyed
for shade. Picking up leaves isn’t the most gratifying work, but raking them out
of the flowerbeds and blowing them off the driveway does sharpen things up
quite a bit. The nice thing about leaves is that once the tree is finished
dropping them, you’re finished cleaning up after them for the year.
Following this
regimen once a week, or even twice a month, is all your yard needs to look great.
