Lawn Care in Rapid City
Known as the gateway to Mt. Rushmore, Rapid City’s semi-arid climate does not give way to easy plant growth. It’s difficult to maintain a good lawn with significant temperature variations, going from dry and hot summers to below-freezing-point winters.
In these circumstances, you need a professional’s help, and LawnStarter offers just that. From simple mows to elaborate treatments, our pros will do it all.
Here are some things to know about lawn care in Rapid City:
Grass Type Matters
Figuring out the best grass for your South Dakota lawn is tricky. Here are the most popular types in Rapid City:
- Kentucky bluegrass: It develops a thick grass carpet and withstands foot traffic but has high fertilization needs. Mow it between 2.5 and 3.5 inches.
- Perennial ryegrass: This slow-growing grass won’t need much mowing and fertilizing. It will need supplemental watering during dry months. Mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
- Fine fescue: It has low mowing and fertilization needs and likes to be mowed between 2.5 and 4 inches.
- Bermudagrass: Sun-loving and resilient, it has a fast growth rate and needs frequent mowing. Fertilize regularly and mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
- Buffalograss: Its high drought tolerance is perfect for the arid South Dakota climate, and it has low mowing and fertilizer requirements. Mow it between 2 and 3 inches.
Other Services We Offer
LawnStarter offers a wide range of services in Rapid City. They include:
- Aeration: Relieve compacted soil so your grass can better absorb water, nutrients, and air.
