April along the East Bay Bike Path is all wet green and mud, Squantum Woods leafing out, Kettle Point catching the first warm wind that comes up off the water. Wicked Roots Lawn Care starts its season right there — raking the winter out of the turf, cutting the beds back to a defined line, taking the first low mow since fall. Through summer it is the weekly cut and trim, hedges kept off the walkway, clippings returned to the lawn instead of sent down a storm drain. The name is about what happens under the surface: deep roots, patient watering, a lawn with enough underneath it to survive August. By the time the path turns gold in October, the leaves are already going out.
