You don't need to follow a yellow brick road to reach a green paradise. In Bloomington, your lawns can echo the city's verdant landscapes regardless of season. However, a lush lawn is only possible if you carefully handle it.

Here’s what lawn care looks like in Bloomington:
Best Grass Types for Bloomington
Cool-season grasses are best adapted to Indiana. They can handle the unpredictable winters and withstand dry periods in Bloomington. The most popular varieties are:
- Kentucky bluegrass: This grass tolerates cold winters and self-repairs after damage. Water moderately, fertilize often, and mow it between 2.5 and 3.5 inches.
- Fine fescues: Red, chewings, hard, and sheep fescues are low-maintenance, drought-resistant, shade tolerant, and thrive in poor soil. Keep them between 2.5 and 4 inches tall.
- Perennial ryegrass: This rapidly-germinating grass creates a durable lawn for high-traffic areas. Mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches and watch out for fungal diseases.
How often should you mow your lawn? Ideally, you should mow your lawn weekly during the spring and fall. During Indiana's hot summer months, cool-season grasses usually enter a dormant phase and stop growing, so there's no need for mowing.
