A mile above the sea, the sun over Longmont comes in thin and bright and asks a great deal of a lawn. Thrive Lawn Solutions Inc answers with the basics done faithfully, out along Clover Basin and clear across town: mowing at a height that shades its own roots, feeding in spring and fall, weeds handled before they get any ideas. Edges are cut clean along walks and drives so a yard reads sharp from the street. Cleanups open the season and close it, debris out in April, leaves gone by November. Thick, even grass in a semi-arid place is not luck; it is a routine somebody keeps.
