Message from Gil: A Scorching Start to Summer

July has arrived, alongside high heat and humidity, marking a dramatic change from our cool spring weather. We’re finally getting a reprieve from the dry spell with seasonal rainstorms, helping irrigation. However, they can also contribute to turf-damaging lawn diseases.

Virginia Green’s 11-application Estate Lawn Care program can reduce the threat of disease on your lawn. In addition to the great weed control and fertilization provided with our Premium program, the Estate program adds 4 fungicide applications in the summer to prevent disease, and includes extra weed treatments, grub control and lime to maintain Ph. These fungicides both cure existing diseases and prevent further damage, while allowing the turf to recover. To upgrade your service, visit our Estate Lawn Care program page or just give us a call here at the office.

We are busy preparing for the upcoming Fall Core Aeration and Seeding season, which includes purchasing seed from our partner in Tangent, Oregon. Before delivery, this fescue is cleaned and tested multiple times, to ensure it is completely free of weed and other crop seeds. Virginia Green uses the best seed and the best equipment to core aerate and seed your lawn, including touching up the corners and edges by hand—we even leave you with a 5-pound bag of seed for further touch-ups. With less than 45 days until aeration begins, make sure you sign up today before all spots are filled.

Thank you for allowing Virginia Green to be your partner in your landscape and please continue to enjoy your summer!

Warm regards,
