Red dirt, post oak, and Bermuda that runs hot all July — that is a Tecumseh yard. R & B Lawn Care & Landscaping works the town's shaded grid of streets and the acreages out toward the river bottoms, where pecans throw long shade and the grass grows thin beneath them. Mowing here is a rhythm: cut, run the fence line, edge the walk, blow the drive clean before the truck rolls. When a Pottawatomie County storm knocks a yard around, the cleanup comes first and the mow follows it. By evening the lines run straight toward the porch and the place looks looked-after.
