Autumn has arrived. The leaves are turning gold and red. The evenings are drawing in. Which means it’s time to prepare your garden for autumn. Follow these tips to take care of your garden this autumn so that your outdoor space looks good over the colder months and is ready when spring comes around.
1. Look After the Lawn (Install LazyLawn)
If you have a real grass lawn, when autumn comes, increased rainfall, low temperatures, and weak sunshine affect the turf, so there are a few things you need to do to maintain it over autumn. You need to clear dead leaves regularly as any debris left on the lawn will deprive it of sunlight, resulting in brown patches and dead turf. You’ll also need to remove thatch and moss, aerate the grass, rake dead material, water and mow the lawn, treat with weed killer, apply an autumn fertiliser, trim the edges, and maybe even lay new turf.
Alternatively, you could install LazyLawn artificial turf and avoid this high level of maintenance altogether. LazyLawn stays green all year round and does not die as a result of lack of sunlight. LazyLawn does not require watering, mowing, or fertilising. The turf is very easy to maintain – simply remove debris using a rake, and if the grass gets dirty, hose it down using detergent and a brush. LazyLawn is also not affected by cold autumn weather and is highly durable, with a life expectancy of 15 years, which means you won’t need to re-turf and maintain it every year when autumn comes around.
