Toronto spring garden cleanup in North York

Dealing with ornamental grasses in a Toronto spring garden cleanup


The biggest tasks in this North York, Toronto garden at this time of the year is cutting back and dealing with the dried ornamental grass leaves that were left on over the past winter. It was a little tough dealing with the woody-like dried stems but my sharp loppers made steady and efficient progress. Being warm season grasses, these Miscanthus sinensis (Maiden grass) cultivars will start pushing new leaves when the temperatures increase a little more in another month.

These two small beds just had a few perennials like lavender and Japanese Forest Grass that needed a little tidying up.

A small garden renovation in North York, ON

A recent garden rescue in North York, Toronto

Maybe "rescue" is too dramatic but this small front yard garden bed definitely needed a "rehab"! It was completely infested with garlic mustard and Siberian squill with some decrepit old tulips here and there.

Here's a before picture:

The client wanted a fresh start with very low maintenance requirements. Here's the after picture showing the new plantings which should fill in over 2-3 years.
