The Trouble with Turfgrass
Drought, water shortages, and the health effects of lawn chemicals are causing more and more Floridians to take a hard look at our lawns. Florida’s climate and soils are not suitable for most turfgrass choices. As a result, regular irrigation, fertilizing, and pesticide application are required to maintain a plush green lawn. From an ecological perspective, a solid expanse of turfgrass offers no biodiversity to support beneficial insects, songbirds or other elements of our natural environment. And the fertilizers and pesticides used in turf maintenance can be toxic to wildlife and pollute our water supply.
