Spring has officially arrived in Sedgwick County, and that means it’s time to start thinking about your landscaping and irrigation needs. At TenderCare Lawn and Landscape, we specialize in professional landscaping services and irrigation system maintenance that help you keep your outdoor space in peak condition—season after season.
Whether you’re preparing for backyard barbecues or just want a lawn that turns heads, here are some essential tips to help your yard thrive this spring.
1. Clean Up Your Landscape for a Fresh Start
Start by removing leaves, branches, and dead plants left over from the winter months. A clean yard not only looks better but allows for better airflow and sun exposure, which promotes healthier growth.
2. Apply Fresh Mulch to Flower Beds and Trees
Adding a fresh layer of mulch to your landscaping beds helps retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and prevent weed growth. Mulch also improves your curb appeal—a big plus if you’re planning to sell your home this year.
3. Inspect and Repair Your Irrigation System
Before you start watering regularly, it’s crucial to check your irrigation system. Look for broken sprinkler heads, clogged nozzles, and leaks that can waste water and hurt your lawn.
At TenderCare, we offer professional irrigation system inspections and sprinkler repairs to make sure everything is working efficiently. Consider upgrading to a smart irrigation controller for even more control and water savings.
4. Aerate and Fertilize Your Lawn
After a long winter, your lawn needs some TLC. Aerating helps break up compacted soil and allows air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots. Follow up with a spring fertilizer tailored to your grass type for stronger, greener growth.
5. Add Color with New Plantings
Spring is the perfect time to plant new shrubs, perennials, and ornamental grasses. If you’re not sure what plants thrive in your local climate, our expert landscapers can help you choose the right mix for year-round beauty.

6. Don’t Forget Hardscape Features
Hardscaping—like patios, walkways, retaining walls, and stone edging—adds structure and function to your yard. Spring is the ideal season for installing or updating hardscape elements before summer heat sets in.
