Lawns
 

Hi there,
HELP!! I am a complete novice gardner, trying to landscape my garden
and I want to keep it quite minimal, with clean lines and fairly low
maintenance. The garden needs a bit of levelling off and then I wanted
to sow grass seeds over the top, I wondered if anyone could give me
any tips/advice and also what is the best time to do it. I've been
told early Autumn - but I would like to start it before then ready for
the summer, is this possible to do in early spring??
If anyone can help I'd be really grateful...

Where are you located?
Advice for folks in South Florida is markedly different than advice for
people living in Norway.

First, do you have any trees in your landscape that would need to have the
root zones protected?

1) where are you?
2) are you aware of the sort of maintenance most lawns require?
3) how large is the area?
