Heat Stress
The heat is on and my lawn is showing it – yours probably is too. Here in Central Virginia, we live in a transition zone, which means it gets really cold in the winter and extremely hot in the summer, which can (and usually does) equate to stressed turf. Although we can’t really do anything about Virginia weather, there are some steps we can take to help our grass handle the heat.
The three tips below should help your lawn survive the hot weather.
Lawn of the Month Winners - 2024 March
We are thrilled to announce our March Lawn of the Month winners as the weather has begun to warm up.

Remember, each month is a new chance to win $75 towards a future application.
Message from Gil: Spring Is Officially Here And Lawns Are Thriving
Spring is officially here and lawns are thriving during National Lawn Care Month
Spring is officially here! The warm weather of the past two weeks is a vast improvement over the rainy and cloudy conditions of the past three winter months. We are delighted to see Virginia Green customers outside, mowing their lawns for the first time and working on their landscapes. Being outside on a beautiful Virginia Green lawn with flowers blooming, birds chirping, and tree’s leafing out remains something special.

Our Service Leaders are busy watching the grass turn a lush green, and we're seeing our customers begin to spend more time outside. It's a busy season for us, and we're ready to ensure everyone's lawns are top-notch.
Lawn of the Month Winners - 2024 February
We are excited to announce our February Lawn of the Month winners. If you weren’t chosen, next month is another opportunity to show off your lawn and we can’t wait to see how your lawn will look once the weather begins to warm up. Remember, each month is a new chance to win $75 towards a future application.
Message from Gil: 2024 Is off to a Great Start
So far, 2024’s winter weather has been cooperative despite excessive rain. The good news is all the products our Virginia Green service leaders apply need to be watered into the soil, so this eliminates a step for our homeowners. We have been outside working when we can, with Virginia Green Service Leaders pulling soil samples, sending these to Waypoint Labs in Memphis, and getting the results back to our customers much faster than in previous years.
