A practical guide to Florida lawn care

Organized around the conditions and tasks of maintaining a home lawn in Florida, the handbook covers grass selection, establishment, and upkeep alongside soil analysis, fertilization, mowing, and irrigation. Yearly care calendars and instructions for calibrating sprinklers and fertilizer spreaders give the material a hands-on, seasonal dimension. It also addresses challenges such as drought, cold, weeds, thatch, and pests, with illustrated diagnostic information and color plates for identifying grasses, weeds, diseases, and insects. Integrated pest management and pesticide use are included, making this a broad reference to both routine lawn care and troubleshooting.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Florida homeowners establishing or maintaining a lawn
  • Gardeners seeking seasonal lawn-care guidance and practical equipment instructions
  • Readers looking for illustrated help identifying lawn weeds, diseases, or pests
