Summer Maintenance

A lush green lawn in the summer makes spending time outside even more enjoyable. In Australia, we have hot dry summers, so we need to remember to keep the moisture up to help our lawns stay healthy.

Wetting agents can burn the lawn if enough water is not applied immediately to water them in.
