Here’s what lawn care looks like in Bristol:

Best Grass Types for Bristol

Bristol is best suited for cool-season grasses. But you can also manage a few warm-season varieties here. Some popular choices include: 

• Tall Fescue: This durable cool-season grass adapts well. It’s drought-tolerant and maintains a green hue year-round.  
• Kentucky Bluegrass: This cool-season variety develops a fine texture and performs great in cooler temperatures. It requires full sun and proper irrigation to thrive. 
• Zoysiagrass: This is a warm-season grass forming an attractive pest- and drought-resistant turf. It handles hot and humid conditions well and shows good wear tolerance.
• Bermudagrass: Another warm-season grass, it thrives in full sun, establishes quickly, and has good resistance to drought and heat.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? For cool-season grasses, mow every one to two weeks in the spring and fall and reduce the frequency to every two to three weeks in the summer. Mow your warm-season turf weekly during the spring and summer and shift to bi-weekly mows in the fall.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Bristol

Your Bristol lawn isn’t safe from the wrath of Virginia’s native pests and diseases. Our pros will fortify your lawn against:

• Chewing Insects: Japanese beetles, armyworms, and chinch bugs eat grass blades, causing wilting and yellowing.
• Root Eaters: White grubs, moles, and voles damage grassroots, turning your lawn patchy and weak. 
• Fungal Diseases: Brown patch and dollar spot leave irregular patches of brown or bleached grass.
