Here’s what lawn care looks like in Linden:

Best Grass Types for Linden

Because of the freezing temperatures in New England, only cool-season grasses grow in Linden. These grasses thrive in our mild spring and fall weather. Our experts recommend:

• Kentucky Bluegrass: This soft grass handles the cold well but needs a lot of water to stay green. It also needs full sun to keep that beautiful blue-green color.
• Perennial Ryegrass: A great grass for families with pets and kids, this grass handles foot traffic but doesn’t like hot or dry weather.
• Tall Fescue: This is a very versatile and low-maintenance grass. It tolerates heat and drought and adapts to many soil types. 
• Fine Fescue: This slow-growing grass can handle partial shade and full sun. It’s soft but doesn’t tolerate foot traffic.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? During the growing seasons in the spring and fall, we recommend mowing your lawn weekly.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Linden

Whether your lawn is recovering from a snowy winter or is suffering from the summer heat, pests, and diseases can make things more difficult. Watch out for these common pests and diseases.

• Grubs: If you notice dying patches of grass that are easy to pull up, you may have a grub infestation. These little white bugs love to eat the grassroots.
• Chinch Bugs: These bugs suck the juice out of grass blades, leaving them dry. They overwinter in the lawn and emerge in the spring.
• Snow Mold: When the snow begins to melt, you may notice matted, crusty, white, gray, or pink patches of grass.
• Dollar Spot: In heat and humidity, this fast-spreading fungus can leave unwanted spots on your lawn.
