So far, this winter has brought a mix of conditions, including recent snowfall. While the weather has occasionally delayed work, our Virginia Green Service Leaders have been out performing services whenever possible, targeting winter annuals and preparing lawns for spring. We've been applying lime and potassium to prepare lawns for the growing season ahead, and our team continues to refine their expertise through agronomic training. As daylight increases, fescue lawns will regain their rich green color throughout the month.

Don't Wait To Protect Your System

With the shift in temperatures away from summer and into winter, plan ahead for winterizing your irrigation system by scheduling a visit from a contractor. We do suggest that you schedule this appointment for late November, around Thanksgiving time. This allows for water to be available for any warm days in the absence of rainfall.

This year has brought unique challenges for lawn care. A short spring followed by a hot, dry summer tested the resilience of many lawns, and the surge of rain kept our team busy. Through it all, we sincerely appreciate your continued partnership and trust in Virginia Green. We understand this year’s weather had a greater impact on some lawns more than others, and we’re committed to helping them recover and thrive. As always, we’re here to support you, so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any concerns.

As the temperatures drop and we transition into fall, many homeowners in Virginia begin to notice an unwelcome change in their lawns—the return of cool-season weeds. While the cooler weather may feel like a relief after the summer heat, it also creates perfect conditions for pesky weeds like poa annua, chickweed, and henbit to establish themselves.

Whether you’re a Virginia Green customer or someone new to lawn care services, it’s important to understand why these weeds are thriving and what you can do to manage them effectively.
