Lawn Care for Southlake Homes
Most Southlake lawns are Bermuda in full sun, St. Augustine in shade under oaks or zoysia for a premium look. Each has its own needs. Bermuda likes a low cut and lots of sun, St. Augustine needs a higher cut and is prone to chinch bugs in hot weather, and zoysia grows slowly but forms a dense carpet. Weekly mowing through the growing season keeps them all healthy, and sharp blades matter on large lawns where dull cuts show quickly.
Feeding and weed control follow the seasons. Spring pre-emergent stops crabgrass and other summer weeds, summer care focuses on keeping turf healthy through heat, and a fall winterizer helps grass store energy for winter. Grubs and fire ants show up in many yards, and St. Augustine can suffer from take-all root rot and brown patch, especially where water sits. Overseeding with ryegrass in fall is optional and mainly cosmetic.
Aeration helps sandy and compacted soil take in water and nutrients. Core aeration for warm-season grass is best in late spring to early summer, roughly May to June. Southlake's twice-per-week sprinkler schedule means deep, early morning watering on assigned days works better than light daily watering. Acreage lots along Shady Oaks Drive and large Timarron yards benefit from a routine that keeps mowing, edging and feeding on a set calendar. Call to set up lawn service.

Southlake Notes
Shade from mature oaks in older Southlake neighborhoods makes Bermuda thin out, so St. Augustine or zoysia often does better there. Chinch bugs in St. Augustine are a common summer issue, especially in hot, sunny spots near drives and walks. Southlake lawns are mostly Bermuda, St. Augustine and zoysia on sandy loam that dries fast in summer. Chinch bugs, grubs and brown patch are common lawn issues.
Typical Timeline
Mowing service can usually start within a week. Seasonal treatments follow the calendar from early spring through fall.
