While much of the country is blanketed in snow, December in Central Florida means mild temperatures, green lawns, and plenty of time to enjoy your outdoor spaces. But even with our unique climate, your landscape still needs some attention to stay healthy, attractive, and ready for spring growth. Here’s how to keep your yard looking its best this December and beyond: 1. Keep Up With Lawn Care—But Adjust for Winter Your grass may not grow as quickly in December, but it still needs regular attention. Mow less frequently, but keep the grass at a moderate height to protect roots. Remove fallen leaves and debris to prevent smothering your turf and encourage airflow. Watch for signs of fungus or brown patches, which can pop up with cooler, damp weather. 2. Water Wisely Cooler months mean your landscape needs less water. Cut back irrigation to once a week or less, depending on rainfall. Water early in the day to minimize disease risk and reduce evaporation. Check your irrigation system for leaks, misdirected heads, and adjust timers for winter. 3. Add Festive, Florida-Friendly Color December is a great time to refresh beds and containers with cool-season annuals. Try petunias, snapdragons, pansies, or violas for pops of color that last all winter. Use reds, whites, and purples for a subtle holiday feel that works beyond December. Group plantings near entryways, walkways, and patios for maximum impact. 4. Tidy Up for Holiday Guests Whether you’re hosting family or just want to enjoy your space, a quick cleanup goes a long way. Edge beds and walkways for a crisp, professional look. Trim back overgrown shrubs and remove spent blooms. Add a fresh layer of mulch for instant curb appeal and root protection. Clean up outdoor living areas and check lighting for safety and ambiance. 5. Plan for Cold Snaps Central Florida rarely sees hard freezes, but a sudden cold night can still happen. Have frost cloth (not plastic) ready for sensitive plants. Move containers to sheltered spots if a freeze is forecast. Avoid heavy pruning of tropicals until after the last risk of frost in late winter. 6. Reflect and Plan for Spring December is the perfect time to walk your property and make a landscape wish list for the new year. Note areas that need improvement or new plantings. Think about upgrades like new beds, hardscaping, or outdoor lighting. Schedule consultations now—landscape pros book up fast for spring installs.
