There are few things more satisfying than a pristine, well-manicured lawn. Being able to walk out your front door to a yard of bright green grass is a very welcoming feeling. But it can be hard to keep the grass green, especially in the harsh heat of a Florida summer. It can be done, though! Here we will go over a few tips to keep your lawn looking luscious while the temperature rises this summer in the Sunshine State. 

If you've never heard of a french drain, don't worry. It's not a drain central to France, nor is it some weird food dish. It's a very significant drain that goes by a few different names (i.e., trench drain, filter drain, weeping tile, rock drain, etc.). It's a trench filled with rocks or gravel that redirects surface water and groundwater away from where it shouldn't be through a perforated pipe system.

Watering it correctly is the key! Here we will go over the best times to water your lawn and how to keep those first impressions positive for guests.
