Spring: Love that Lawn
What does your lawn say about you? As soon as the warmer spring weather arrives lawns start to send out green shoots. If not cared for properly it will soon become long and straggly making the whole place appear neglected. This suggests that the inhabitants don’t care about their surroundings and thus by association, their business. When passers-by see a lawn that has not been cared for, they could be excused for thinking that no one lives in that house, or conducts business on those premises.
On the other hand, when a lawn is kept spruce and neat, it tells the world that here is someone who cares about the environment, their own surroundings and by association, their business. A beautiful lawn acts almost as a welcome mat to those coming to do business with you, or to your home for a visit.
However, it takes time to care for a lawn; it must be watered, fed and groomed properly, rather like a thoroughbred racehorse. Growth is what keeps a lawn healthy, and this can only be achieved with the correct watering and feeding. Of course, the growth must then be controlled by mowing, otherwise grasses become straggly and some go to seed and then die, causing brown patches in the lawn. Disease and insect infestation can also cause your lawn to become brown and bare.
This means that those who go to work every day must steal time from their few leisure hours to work on their lawns. And those who are running a business often work many extra hours without taking time to see to the lawns. A simple phone call can solve the problem. Let a professional care for your lawns and gardens. A professional can attend to all the hard work involved in mowing, fertilizing and watering your lawn. He will see to it that your lawn gets the correct care in the right seasons.
Different types of lawn grasses need different care. Some may need aeration and dethatching. The correct fertiliser needs to be applied in the right amount at just the right time to enhance this first growth period, enabling your lawn continue optimum growth to look its best. Just as owners of racing horses don’t leave their care to people who know nothing about it, so those who have lawns to care for need to get professional care for their lawns to remain healthy and look wonderful.
