What is planted in your garden that will enhance your winter decor? Many of the elements that are present all year can have a true opportunity to shine at the end of the growing season.

When the weather turns colder I often get questions about our winter landscaping tasks in the park. I personally feel like we have more to do in the off-season than we do when we are open. The off-season is full of projects that prepare us for the coming year.

During the season our job is to maintain the park for our guests. The hedges are trimmed, the turf is mowed, the flower beds are changed from pansies to summer annuals to mums and everything gets watered and fed as needed. All of this happens before the guests arrive.
