If you have chosen to rent a property with a garden, you are responsible for maintaining the gardens and grounds. This includes watering, mowing, trimming, weeding, the removal of waste, and the prevention of damage, such as not parking vehicles on lawns or gardens.
Excess garden waste is not to be used as mulch!
Spring
A good time for a clean-up, in preparation for plant growth.
Reset sprinkler systems (if available).
Summer
Adjust periods for watering lawns and garden beds. Tenants have a responsibility to keep the grass and plants healthy and trimmed.
Autumn
Rake leaves, reset sprinkler systems (if available).
Remove waste material.
Winter
Maintain appropriate water to gardens and lawns (frosts actually dry grass and plants out).
If any water restrictions are in place, you are still responsible for watering the lawns and plants.
