At what height do you cut the lawn? Can you cut the lawn to a specific height if requested?
We cut St. Augustine sod to 3.5 inches and Bahia sod to 2.5 inches. We recommend these heights for this area's climate, however, if you would like it cut shorter we can.
Why is mowing at the right height and alternating patterns of cut so important?
The right height will cause less damage to the blade of grass so the plant is under less stress. This in turn will allow for better vigor which in itself will help shade, fend off weeds and protect against insect damage.
When and how should my shrubs be pruned?
The following is a basic guideline for pruning. When present, damaged or diseased shrub-limbs and branches should be removed. Most flowering shrubs and ornamental trees, should be pruned after blooming and before the next year's buds set. Prune whenever possible for plant health and to keep the natural shape of the plant.
