About hurricane landscaping and tree trimming

September light in Altamonte Springs has a color of its own — a long copper hour that arrives once the storms have moved off and the Little Wekiva runs high and brown through the cypress at Lake Lotus. That is when hurricane landscaping and tree trimming does some of its best work, in the days after weather, when a yard is strewn with palm fronds and snapped oak litter and the grass beneath has gone shaggy and pale from too much water. Rake, haul, mow, and the lawn remembers what it was. The hedges get squared again, the beds get cleared, the line where turf meets sidewalk gets cut back sharp. There is something steadying in it: a yard put back in order while the sky is still making up its mind. Lawn care and cleanup for Altamonte Springs and the towns just past it — Forest City, Apopka, Longwood and Maitland.
