August in Glen Cove: tomato stakes leaning in the back, fig trees waiting to be wrapped, and a front lawn that has to look right for the street. M Petulla & Son Landscaping keeps that side of things going with mowing, edging, trimming, mulch in the beds, and the clearing at each end of the season. There is a standard on these blocks about how a lawn ought to meet a sidewalk, and it is not a loose one. Heat and harbor humidity push growth hard through the last weeks of summer, so the schedule holds firm. The city's neighborhoods and the streets just past the line get the same hand.
