WEB PAGE ADDRESS The web page address is www.sabrespringshoa.org LANDSCAPE TIPS There are two good reasons to plant shrubs and trees this month. First, they will develop their root system over the Winter and second, to take advantage of any free water, aka rain. Remember to wait to plant tropicals until the Spring, after the threat of frost has past. Start re-seeding cool season turf such as Fescue and Blue Grass now. Bermuda grass is beginning to go dormant, so over-seeding with rye grass can be done at this time. Remember to reset your mower blades to mow these grasses shorter - a height of about 1 inches is recommended. Now is a good time to cut back zonal geraniums. Trimming them by about half will encourage new Winter growth as well as flowering. Leave several healthy leaves on each stem and cut above the joint. Bare stubs will not recover. Ivy geranium that is growing on the ground can be cut back slightly, cleaned up, have mulch added and then fertilized with a fertilizer such as Nitra-King 22-3-9. PLEASE REVIEW CONDITION OF YOUR LAWN & TREES Recent inspections of the community has revealed a number of trees with limbs which are overhanging sidewalks. Please inspect your property to insure that trees belonging to you are not causing a hazardous condition.
