October comes on slowly in Columbia, the oaks along the bluffs turning bronze while the maples in town flare red and let their leaves drift down onto the grass. Klaus complete care keeps working yards through that seasonal turn, cutting lawns as the growth eases and the mornings sharpen with cold. A late-season mow chops up the scattered leaves and sets the turf short and orderly for the months ahead. Edges stay squared off to the very end, so a yard goes into November looking as finished as it did in June. Closing out a season properly carries a satisfaction all its own.
