By late February the Eastern Shore is already in color, camellias holding on and azaleas opening along the fences while much of the country is still frozen. Osborne Landscaping starts its year there, bringing the grass back into shape with the first cuts and tightening the trimming around beds that have gone soft over winter. Edging returns the separation between planting and turf to something you can read from the sidewalk. Cleanups carry off blown leaves and spent blooms so new growth has room to come. It is a good season to work in Daphne, and by March the yards say so.
