Best Grass Types for Hagerstown

We experience a mix of weather, from hot, humid summers to cold winters, with moderate snowfall. This climate supports both cool-season and warm-season grasses, making it versatile for various lawn preferences.

• Tall Fescue: Deep-rooted and drought-resistant, it is perfect for both sunny and shaded areas.
• Kentucky Bluegrass: This cool-season grass is known for its lush, green color and ability to recover from damage.
• Perennial Ryegrass: With quick germination and a fine texture, it is ideal for overseeding existing lawns.
• Zoysiagrass: This is a warm-season grass that creates a dense, traffic-resistant lawn, turning brown in winter but beautiful and green in the summer.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Start mowing in the spring when the grass begins to grow and maintain a weekly mowing schedule into the fall.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Hagerstown

Hagerstown's diverse climate also supports a variety of lawn pests and diseases, which can compromise the health and appearance of your lawn. Common invaders include:

• Grubs: These beetle larvae feed on grass roots, causing yellow patches.
