While other parts of the country are still buried under a thick blanket of snow, here in the Deep South, the azaleas are already in full bloom and the first bright green leaves on the trees are beginning to unfurl. What better time than the first day of spring to launch our new website dedicated to your lawn and garden!

Around the Yard features a wealth of articles and videos to help turn your yard into the envy of the neighborhood. From selecting fertilizer and propagating roses to laying stepping stones and choosing the right fence, our outdoor experts take the mystery out of growing a garden and caring for your lawn.

We want Around the Yard to become your home on the web for everything green. So if you have a tip that makes your garden grow, or would like to share a picture of your backyard retreat or prize rose, send them to editor@dannylipford.com and we may feature them on the site. Here’s to the warm days, green grass, and blue skies ahead. May your thumb always be green!
