Florida’s Rainy Season is upon us! From May to October each year, we experience a dramatic increase in rainfall and maybe a hurricane or two. All that extra rainwater results in sudden and abundant new plant growth. Flowers bloom, weeds sprout and pollen permeates the air; much to the dismay of allergy sufferers. This is what gardeners, arborists, and landscapers like to call “Spring Flush.” In areas where plants hibernate during winter, the soil’s temperatures rise is what catalyzes this explosive growth. In Florida, it is the abundance of water compared to our dry season. As roots and shoots flush in they can tear up walkways and litter properties with petals and seedlings.
As a property manager or Home Owners Association, your responsibilities should lie with your tenants and also with the health of the property. Each April you will observe each type of plant on your property growing rapidly all at the same time. You might notice spring blush growth sprouting in the form of trees, shrubs, flowers or weeds. This overflow of growth can cause pruning to become a challenge. Keeping lawns maintained and plants well groomed keeps spring blush damage to a minimum. Elite Landscape Concepts knows how to effectively manage your spring flush so you can enjoy your summer. Your homeowners will appreciate not residing within a blizzard of pollen and ferna as well.
