Hire the Best Lawn Care Service in Lafayette
Lafayette’s semi-arid climate, with below-freezing temperatures in the winter, dry summers, and periodic drought, makes lawn care a bit of a gamble. The biggest challenge of maintaining a lawn in Colorado is water scarcity.
You need a professional’s expertise to develop an efficient watering schedule and deliver proper soil treatments and nutrition to fight the rocky Lafayette and higher elevations.
LawnStarter’s pros offer just that and a lot more. They are well-versed in the climate, altitude, and soil conditions of Lafayette and will mow, trim, edge, aerate, irrigate, and more.
Here’s what lawn care looks like in Lafayette:
Best Grass Types for Lafayette
Hot summers and cold, windy winters, with a few months of mild weather, mean both cool- and warm-season grasses perform well in Lafayette. However, due to the high altitude (approx 5,000 feet above sea level) and more intense sunlight, only drought-tolerant warm-season varieties and cool-season grasses with low water requirements thrive.
Varieties include:
- Kentucky Bluegrass: It develops a fine-textured, lush appearance and is well-adapted to the cold. It may go dormant during the hot summer months.
- Fine Fescue: All fine fescue varieties are shade-tolerant, drought-resistant, and have a fine texture.
- Tall Fescue: This is a durable cool-season grass that adapts well to various soil types. It’s heat-tolerant and maintains a nice green hue throughout the year with minimal care.
- Perennial Ryegrass: A rapid-germinator, perennial ryegrass establishes quickly and has a fine texture. However, it may require more water than other cool-season varieties.
- Buffalograss: Low-maintenance and native to the region, this warm-season grass is drought-tolerant and lush once established. It will go dormant and turn brown in the winter though.
How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? For cool-season grasses, mow weekly in the spring and fall and every two to three weeks in the summer. Mow buffalograss every one to two weeks from the spring to fall and reduce mowing to every two to three weeks in winter.
Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Lafayette
Lafayette encounters its share of pesky pests and diseases. Get ready to face off against:
- White Grubs: These insects munch on grassroots and cause brown patches.
- Japanese Beetles: These critters feed on grass foliage, trees, and plants, damaging their appearance.
- Powdery Mildew: A fungal disease, it manifests as a white, powdery coating on grass blades. It leads to yellowing leaves and stunted growth.
- Brown Patch: Another fungal disease. It causes circular brown patches, often with a darker ring around the edge. It occurs in warm temperatures.
