This is the best time of year, especially without snow, to evaluate your landscape. Without all of the foliage, plants and weeds in the way, you can look at the bare bones of your yard and gardens. Yes, you can do this in the warm months as well, but planning changes is a fun winter project so you can get on it in the spring. Things I would suggest to look at:
-pruning, get it done!
-flower beds, time to re-do or move? More than 30% weeds, start over.
-turf areas, uneven, sparse too weedy? Again 30% weeds....start over.
-fencing, trellis, arbors: need repair, replacing or painting?
-rock mulch, time to revamp? switch to bark mulch, much easier in the long run for upkeep.
-time to add new trees or shrubs?
-time to add more to, or move that lonely peony stuck in the middle of the yard by itself?
