Even if you’re not a NASCAR fan, Darlington has something to capture and keep your attention. It may be the beautiful oak trees or the historic districts. The Darlington Country Club is also a special treat for golfers.

Here's what lawn care looks like in Darlington:

Best Grass Types for Darlington

The best grass types for Darlington County are warm-season grass types that can adapt to fluctuating weather. They include:

• St. Augustine: This variety is well adapted to the Pearl of the Pee Dee’s hot summers and high humidity. It also grows well in shady environments. 
• Zoysiagrass: Another grass that adapts well, Zoysia thrives in shade, full sun, drought, and humidity. 
• Bermudagrass: Heat and drought-loving, this grass grows aggressively, so it requires frequent mowing.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Mow the grass once a week from late March until late November. Although most grass types can be mowed every five to seven days, aggressive varieties, like Bermuda, need cutting every three to seven days.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Darlington

Heavy rainfall and thunderstorms produce conditions conducive to fungus and other lawn problems. The most prevalent lawn pests and diseases include: 

• Sucking Pests: Insects, such as chinch bugs, suck on grass blades, damaging the lawn and causing it to yellow and brown.   
• Chewing Insects: Wilting, brown grass blades indicate you may have chewing pests like sod webworms.
• Fungal Diseases: High humidity and waterlogging cause fungal infections like dollar spot and take-all root rot.
