LANDSCAPE UPDATE
A second application of fertilizer has been applied this week to all overseeded areas of the Village. This application is to provide nitrogen necessary to develop and maintain a dark green color and continue feeding the turf as the colder, winter temperatures approach.
The vegetation winter cutbacks will be continuing over the next several weeks. The plants of focus will be the Red Bird of Paradise, Ornamental Grass and Littleleaf Cordia as shown in the photos below. Cleanup of any remaining Lantana, Orange Jubilee, Yellow Bells and Bougainvillea will also be completed as the crew's move throughout the community.
