Lawn Care in Rapid City
Known as the gateway to Mt. Rushmore, Rapid Cityβs semi-arid climate does not give way to easy plant growth. Itβs difficult to maintain a good lawn with significant temperature variations, going from dry and hot summers to below-freezing-point winters.
In these circumstances, you need a professionalβs help, and LawnStarter offers just that. From simple mows to elaborate treatments, our pros will do it all.
Here are some things to know about lawn care in Rapid City:
Grass Type Matters
Figuring out the best grass for your South Dakota lawn is tricky. Here are the most popular types in Rapid City:
- Kentucky bluegrass: It develops a thick grass carpet and withstands foot traffic but has high fertilization needs. Mow it between 2.5 and 3.5 inches.
- Perennial ryegrass: This slow-growing grass wonβt need much mowing and fertilizing. It will need supplemental watering during dry months. Mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
- Fine fescue: It has low mowing and fertilization needs and likes to be mowed between 2.5 and 4 inches.
- Bermudagrass: Sun-loving and resilient, it has a fast growth rate and needs frequent mowing. Fertilize regularly and mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
- Buffalograss: Its high drought tolerance is perfect for the arid South Dakota climate, and it has low mowing and fertilizer requirements. Mow it between 2 and 3 inches.
Other Services We Offer
LawnStarter offers a wide range of services in Rapid City. They include:
- Aeration: Relieve compacted soil so your grass can better absorb water, nutrients, and air.
