Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers reading our newsletter today. LAWN MOWING With the rain, and upcoming warm May temperatures, the grass is really growing and lawns are beautiful, healthy and of course... in need of mowing. With Spring-like weather (rain and warm temperatures), grass will be extra tall, and require mowing every seven days. This grass growth typically lasts about four to five weeks so bear with us. Once we've moved onto the summer heat of June and July, the grass growth will slow a little bit and allow for managed growth. Did you know that Grosh’s Lawn Service installs freshly sharpened blades on the mowers each day after we finish for the next day mowing? Check out the YouTube video below to learn more! It’s not too late for Grosh’s Lawn Service to take on the weekly lawn mowing. Email Tom today at Tom@GroshsLawnService.com.   PATIO AND HARDSCAPE CLEANING Looking to have your hardscape patio and retaining walls cleaned this year? Now is the time to schedule as we are looking at least four to five weeks out if you want your job completed before July 4th! SPRING FLOWERS AND MULCHING Are you enjoying the beautiful spring colors of the flowers and trees? What is not to love about spring!
