Best Grass Types for Far Rockaway

In Far Rockaway, the coastal environment’s sandy soil and salt spray call for cool-season grasses that are well-adapted to the area. The best choices include:

• Tall Fescue: A cool-season grass with deep roots, it's well-suited for various soil types and can withstand coastal conditions.
• Fine Fescue: Ideal for sandy soils and shaded areas, this grass thrives in cooler temperatures and is perfect for less sunny spots.
• Kentucky Bluegrass: Requires a bit more care but flourishes in the cooler, humid climate of Far Rockaway, offering a dense, green lawn.
• Perennial Ryegrass: Known for establishing quickly, this grass is excellent for overseeding and maintaining lush lawns in coastal areas.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn?  A weekly mowing schedule from late March through October is ideal. As the cooler, windy weather approaches, reducing this to bi-weekly will suffice until winter sets in.
