So this is the new rental i have moved into, and i have applied my method to the front lawn all i have done over four weeks is mowed it once at a high height and watered it twice each time for an hour. I also did not water after the heat that we just had.

To get you lawn better drought tolerant water your lawn deeply and infrequently this means you want to water enough for the water to soak deep into the soil. Enough to be protected from evaporation and then distant enough for the top layer of soil to dry out, so you encourage the roots of the lawn to grow deeper to get moisture deep in the ground.

I am not the biggest fan of artificial lawn, but it does look great 😅 one of the biggest problems is foot traffic flattening it. But that can be fixed by regular blower vacking and or an outdoor vacuuming with an outdoor vacuum.

This is my pop, an absolute legend of a man; he is your one of a kind pop who fixes everything. He is a man of few words, but he's actions speak more than anyone could ever explain. Running your own business is hard and expensive, but I have been lucky enough to have a pop who saves the day whether I made a mistake 😅 or I have equipment that needs servicing or fixing.

The Iris flower has to be one of the most unique looking flowers; in my opinion, it does look quite alien. If you're wondering as beautiful as the Iris flower is it is not the reason why i named business Iris Lawn & Garden. The idea was the Iris of your eye the coloured part as a representation of the beauty of the gardens we work in and help create since this a visually pleasing job i also wanted to make a play on the quote." An eye for detail." Hence Iris Lawn & Garden Care An Eye For Lawn & Garden Maintenance.

If you mow your lawns and your lawnmower cannot mulch do not mistake leaving lawn cuttings on your lawn as mulch. It will not benefit your lawn and increase thatch. That's why i love my Honda lawnmower and its mulch setting, which makes up for 25% of your lawns nutrients and mineral needs for the year.

Do You Have Conifers In Your Garden?

If you do be sure to keep an eye out for branches dying, snap them off and have a look to see if you have cypress bark weevil beetles they are very slow to kill your conifer but they can if left uncontrolled. Simply cut off any dying branches and dispose of properly. It also helps to keep your conifers well water, fed, and some mulch around to help hold in moisture.
