One of my favorite parts of the festive season is seeing Christmas lights adorning houses around the neighborhood. Of course, these pretty lights are primarily for aesthetics, but as it turns out, they can play an active role in keeping your garden healthy during the colder months, too.
When considering your winter gardening tasks, I doubt putting up the Christmas lights was at the top of your list, but perhaps it should be. Winterizing your modern garden is key to maintaining a healthy yard throughout the coldest months of the year, and putting up some festive lights can actually play an important role in this process.
