Lawn care from GardenAdvice

GardenAdvice expert gardeners can help you improve your lawn. Lawn care advice is part of the expert information offered with our online gardening advice service and also our MyGardenTeam service which teams you up with one of our in-house expert gardeners and 75 square metres of lawn care included with the service.

Generally, all our advice on lawns starts with a look at your lawn’s soil pH, creating the correct soil pH for a lawn is critical. Soil pH too high or too low a soil pH will cause weak grass plants allowing weeds and moss to take over.  Learn More about soil pH and lawns 

For our clients that require a more eco and child-friendly lawn, we recommend creating a micro clover lawn. Clover has many advantages including producing its own nitrogen feed by teaming up with soil bacteria known as rhizobia which can live in nodules on the clover roots. Rhizobia take nitrogen gas (N2) from the air and convert it through a series of steps into forms of nitrogen (such as ammonium and nitrate) that can be used by clover to support growth.  Learn more about clover lawns
