Moving from messy to picture perfect garden

Does your garden and backyard look like a hurricane just passed through? With bushes knee high, plants climbing on your walls and grills, tree branches that force you to duck when walking by, and weeds over-running your lovely grass? If this describes your garden perfectly it’s time to clean up!

First, get all your tools out. This may include: gardening gloves, pruning shear, rake, broom, shovel, lawnmower, garbage bags and some kind of weeding tool. Please wear some old clothes because you’re going to get down and dirty.
