The View From Meridian Ranch District News This dry winter can be tough on plant material. When we have warm weather days, it is a good idea to water the trees and shrubs to keep them healthy throughout the winter. Also, water your grass in small amounts, if the water runs off the grass you have given it to much water. It does not take a lot of water to help maintain the winter health of your grass and plant material. For those residents that utilize our walking trails in the winter, use caution as, trails can become icy. While on the trails, if you notice any problems, please call us at 719-495-6567.
