April opens the slopes above town with redbud, a purple haze along every wooded edge, and the yards below wake up all at once. H.P lawn care takes the first mow of the year then — the one that turns a shaggy winter lawn back into a lawn in a single afternoon. After that it is weekly: even height, careful trimming around posts and beds, clippings kept off the drive. Alton springs run wet, and getting in between the rains is the whole trick of the season. Lawn care from that first April pass right through the last of the leaves.
