Hire the Best Lawn Care Service in Marion
Eastern Iowa throws down a weather gauntlet, and Marion is no exception. Blizzards, summer thunderstorms, and gusty winds — your lawn endures all of the elements. And, resilient and adaptable lawn care is essential for keeping your turf healthy and vibrant throughout the year.
LawnStarter Pros will schedule mowing based on seasonal conditions, apply targeted pest control, implement strategic drainage, and fortify your lawn with wind-resistant plants. They’ll also mow, weed, fertilize, aerate, and more, so you can get back to the things you love.
Here’s what lawn care looks like in Marion:
Best Grass Types for Marion
Marion belongs to USDA hardiness zone 5b and experiences average winter temperatures between -10 degrees Fahrenheit and -15 degrees Fahrenheit, making it prime territory for cool-season grasses.
However, there are a couple of warm-season options worth considering — just remember they'll go dormant and turn a straw-like brown in the winter.
- Tall Fescue: A tough cool-season grass, it thrives in full sun and can handle poor soil conditions.
- Kentucky Bluegrass: This cool-season variety has a deep root system that helps it survive drought and heat stress.
- Perennial Ryegrass: This quick-germinating cool-season cultivar blends well with Kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue to create a thicker, more weed-resistant lawn.
- Zoysiagrass: This heat-loving warm-season turf tolerates drought and is perfect for Marion summers.
How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Cool-season cultivars thrive with weekly mowing in the spring and fall, while warm-season varieties prefer once-a-week mowing sessions during the summer.
Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Marion
Marion's fertile soil and vibrant weather might seem like paradise for your lawn, but it also attracts a cast of critters and diseases. The most common are:
- Chewing Insects: Sod webworms and Japanese beetles munch on tender blades, leaving behind yellowing patches and ragged edges.
- Fungal Diseases: Dollar spot and brown patch create unsightly circles and brown patches.
Other Outdoor Services We Offer
LawnStarter's got your back with a whole toolbox of outdoor services beyond just the basic mow-and-blow:
- Drainage Systems: Combat spring floods and summer downpours with custom drainage solutions.
- Seasonal Clean-Up: After winter's icy grip, our pros will tackle dead leaves, debris, and overgrown branches.
- Landscape Design: They'll design and build the perfect outdoor space, from charming patios and fire pits to stunning pergolas and walkways.
You deserve a backyard that's an extension of your happy place, not a battleground for weeds and weather. Get free personalized quotes instantly by clicking, calling, or downloading the LawnStarter app today.
You’re one step closer to handing over your lawn chores, so you can get back to the things you love.
