Texas Roots Revival

About Texas Roots Revival

Sunset sits in the Cross Timbers of Montague County, a belt of post oak and blackjack on sandy ground, where US 287 carries trucks north and south under a sky that does its loudest work at the end of the day. On a clear September evening the name fits perfectly, the light going long and rosy through the oaks while the heat finally lets go. Texas Roots Revival works the lawns of Sunset, and late summer is when the word revival earns its keep: bringing tired, heat-beaten grass back to life after the first real rain. Sandy soil drains fast and dries faster, so a yard out here needs steady mowing, careful trimming and attention that starts at the roots. Few things are more cheering than watching a parched lawn green back up in the cooler weeks, row by row, until it looks as if the summer never got the better of it.
