Why we wrote these
Customers ask us the same questions again and again: how often to mow, when to trim, what to do before the rain. These guides give short, practical answers in plain language, based on the kind of yards we work in around Pasadena.
They are general guidance. Every yard is a little different, so if you want someone to look at yours, send us a request.
