Professional winter lawn installation
Planting rye grass is hard work so call the professionals at Freedom Landscaping. You can sit back and enjoy the nice weather while our staff dethatches your summer grass and cuts it back to make room for the new grass.
The process is often referred to as overseeding since new grass is being planted over the existing Bermuda grass.
Seasonal grasses for Arizona climate
With winter and summer climates being so different, it's necessary to have 2 types of grasses in the Phoenix area if you want a green lawn all year. In the summer, you need a grass that can withstand our 100+ degree weather and Bermuda grass does that. Since Bermuda grass is dormant during the winter, a winter grass (rye grass) is planted to grow during the winter.
Winter rye grass
With winter rye grass planted, you can enjoy a healthy, green lawn throughout the winter months.
For many homeowners, it's a required mandate so don't wait to call as there's a limited window for planting winter grass.
Freedom Landscaping is giving free estimates now with planting to start in late September and continuing throughout October.
Lawn maintenance for seasonal grass
Your rye grass will start to die in early May when the temps get to around 100.
That's your cue to stop watering for a couple of weeks and let it die out. Don't worry –your Bermuda grass didn't die over the winter.
It's only dormant and when you start watering your lawn (after the rye grass has died), it'll wake up. Soon you'll have your green lawn back.
