North of the city the Mohawk spreads out into the Utica Marsh — cattails, red-winged blackbirds, the old canal line running straight through the middle of it. Evergreen Property Care LLC tends lawns and beds in the neighborhoods above that low ground, where September brings cool nights and one last strong flush of growth. Mowing and trimming carry the summer, while mulch, bed edging and shrub work decide how a property reads from the street. When the leaves arrive, the cleanups follow close behind. A yard kept all season needs far less rescuing at the end of it.
