About Midlands Lawn Solutions

A yard does not have to be steep to be tricky — the ground that only rolls a little, rising toward the house and falling away to the street, is what makes a mower operator think. Passes get planned to the contour, across the slope rather than down it, so the cut comes out level and the turf is not scalped at the crest. The rest is the usual sequence: trimming around trees, posts and the meter box, a hard edge along the concrete, and a clean blow-down at the finish. Fescue and bermuda each want different things at different times of year, which keeps the work interesting. A lawn cut on its own terms holds color longer, and shows it from the road.
