Brighton sits in dry country, where a lawn lives or dies on how it is watered and how it is cut. MT LANDSCAPE, IRRIGATION & TURF LLC works that arithmetic: mowing at a height that shades its own roots, trimming close where it counts, keeping thatch and debris from smothering the crown. Early morning is the hour for it — grass still cool, air still, the mountains going pink away to the west. Turf that holds its color through a hot, cloudless July is the entire point, and it is not luck. Autumn brings its own list, and the yard goes into winter tidy.
