Keep your lawn and yard pristine without bleeding the green.
To stay green, your lawn requires a lot of water and fertilizer.
Reduce these costs by:
✓ watering your lawn only one to two inches per week;
✓ keeping mower blades sharp and clean to trim grass for maximum moisture retention;
✓ mowing your lawn to no lower than two to three inches to reduce root exposure and water evaporation;
✓ investing in a self-mulching lawn mower and letting the cuttings fertilize the lawn; and reducing the size of your lawn or removing it altogether — less lawn does not mean a less vibrant yard!
Make your yard green and cost-effective by planting:
✓ drought-resistant plants;
✓ seeds or young plants, as they are cheaper than buying fully grown plants; and
✓ trees and plants native to your area to eliminate the need for extra watering.
Balance out your yard beautification costs by planting fruit trees and a vegetable garden. Growing food reduces grocery costs while adding color and greenery.
Remember, a beautiful, low-maintenance yard attracts buyers!
