It is that time of the year.  This year really flew by.  We were fortunate to have the river stay in its banks so far this year.  It got a little scary on sunday when it started to rise at a rate of 1.5 ft/hr.  The storm I guess wasn't as bad as they predicted, so about 3ft under flooding the river crested and started to go back down.

You may be seen the results of the hard freeze when had in the beginning of December.  Is your grass looking a little yellow.  That is caused by basically frost burn.  The hard frost we had with little or no snow on the ground burns the tops of the grass leaving it looking real yellow.  Unfortunately, there isn't a quick fix for this however, I have had some success using an iron on the grass in the winter to help improve appearance.  Be sure to follow all directions on the bag because iron will stain your concrete or other surfaces.

We are looking forward to another great year here at Choice Turf.  We have plenty of inventory in the ground that will be mature and ready to go all spring and summer.  As for the excessive rain and funny weather patterns we have been having the grass really is looking good right now.  No need to wait the spring to get the mud and dirt covered up in your lawn.  We are here and open and ready to serve you.  Be sure to call and place your order today.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
