Do you require tenants to weed the beds?

[Adam Craig]

My tenants are responsible for all utilities/lawn/snow removal. I am wondering if I can work out a way that that can maintain the flower beds.

So many times the mulched/planted beds are never touched and we have a jungle of weeds to clean up. Is this something I can work into the lease as a requirement and take it out of security if I need to hire landscapers to clean? I was even thinking about offering some kind of $100 credit if they leave the beds as clean as they found them on move in.

Thoughts?
