Evening comes early to Ivywild because the mountain takes the sun first, and the small yards along those streets glow for about twenty minutes before the light goes flat. Colorado Lawn Girl mows, trims and edges through that neighborhood and across Colorado Springs, on lots where the fence line, the alley and the flower bed all sit within a mower's width of one another. Precision counts for more than horsepower here — a straight cut, a tight trim around posts and downspouts, an edge that parts grass from walk like a ruled line. Cleanups in spring and fall clear out whatever the wind has tucked into the corners, and aeration keeps hard-packed clay breathing through the shoulder seasons. Small yards reward attention, and they show it the same afternoon.
