Here's what lawn care looks like in Florence:

Best Grass Types for Florence

Warm-season grass types are suitable for the soil and climate in Florence County. The best varieties include:

• Centipedegrass: The area’s high humidity means routine upkeep is needed to manage this turf’s vulnerability to pests and diseases, but its slow growth rate means it also requires less mowing and fertilization.
• Bermudagrass: Adapting well to the hot summers and droughts, this variety has a deep root structure, which also makes it erosion-resistant.
• Zoysiagrass: This flexible grass type that adjusts to sun, shade, drought, and humidity.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Our experts recommend mowing once a week from the late spring to late fall. For more aggressive varieties, like bermudagrass, you may have to mow every five days.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Florence

Although Magic City experiences icy temperatures, mild weather is never far away. The high humidity encourages lawn insects and fungi. Common nuisances include:

• Chewing Pests: Insects, like sod webworms, feed on grass, leading it to wilt and brown.   
• Sucking Insects: These nuisances suck the juices from grass blades, leaving the grass yellow and brown. 
• Fungal Diseases: Humidity-loving fungi damage lawns. Common diseases include karnal bunt, gray leaf spot, and powdery mildew.
