Have you looked out at your yard lately and thought, “What the heck happened out there?”
Topdressing could mean choosing which of your vintage concert T-shirts to wear. Or completely covering your slice of Thanksgiving turkey with mounds of stuffing.
Add the word “sod,” though, and you get a really great lawn treatment that will boost your lawn’s health and help it thrive.
The weather’s getting wilder out there.
How secure is your landscaping if a storm comes roaring through?
It seems like there are rules for everything these days.
Don’t exceed the speed limit. (Too late.)
Don’t eat the last donut in the box. (That one’s negotiable.)
Don’t waste water with careless lawn watering. (That one makes sense.)
When you start looking for outdoor plants safe for dogs here in Central Florida, it’s doggone disappointing at first.
Asiatic jasmine? Nope — toxic. Podocarpus? Toxic. Croton? Ti plant? Bougainvillea?
Nope, nope, nope.
Aw, man, so many Florida favorites! We’re clearly barking up the wrong tree. This might be ruff.
Maybe you’re one of those homeowners who loves to handle your own lawn chores.
You have a garage full of tools and wake up early on Saturday mornings ready to tackle your list.
Or you’re rolling your eyes right now and keep a list of home and garden repair companies handy in your phone contacts list.
You know a nice green lawn when you see it — the kind that makes you slow down and say, “Man, I wish I had a lawn like that.”
But how do you make sure you're getting the best sod before it becomes your lawn?
First you have to find the best place to buy sod in your area.
Nobody ever says, “I want a lawn that takes up so much time, I moved my bed out to the front yard.”
Well, maybe that one neighbor you saw out there last weekend trimming the edges with a tiny pair of scissors.
Most of us want a lawn that looks great, with minimal care.
So, what grass grows best in Florida?
Still wearing that faded concert T-shirt from high school? Gleefully watched your car odometer roll over 100,000 miles?
You probably appreciate an irrigation system that knows how to hang in there.
It’s hard to beat that new paver feeling, when you linger in your driveway a few extra minutes just to admire how great it looks.
Or, in rarer situations, you move your bed out to the patio because you can’t bear to leave the beauty of it all.
Paver projects add a huge visual boost to your home, but they won’t continue to look great without occasional sealing.
