By September the fields out toward Pine City and Seeley Creek have gone dusty gold, but Elmira's lawns green up again with the first cool rain — it is a good-looking month here. Trumbull's Landscaping & lawncare works through it and the whole growing season: mowing on a set schedule, trimming close, running cleanups in spring and fall as the valley empties its trees. Grass that has been mowed properly all summer answers a September rain immediately; grass that has not takes weeks to catch up. That is the plain argument for keeping after it. The result is a yard that finishes the year looking better than it started.
