September light comes in low across the flat ground west of Auburn, and it finds every mistake in a lawn — the scalped rise, the missed strip, the border that wandered. Taylor landscape works to a standard that survives that light: even mowing at whatever height the season calls for, trimming finished by hand where the deck cannot reach, and clean cuts along drives, walks and beds. Fall is the busy end of it, cleanups pulling leaves off the turf while there is still some growing left in the year. Spring gets the same treatment in reverse, the yard opened up and cleared before the first mow. A lawn kept that way looks composed in any light, which is the whole ambition.
