Lawns

Because you are reading this, you do not need to be convinced of the benefits of a healthy lawn. But, bear in mind that Arkansas lies in what turfgrass types call the transition zone. The practical description of the transition zone is an area where summer is often too hot for cool season grasses such as bluegrass, ryegrass and tall fescue and winter is occasionally too cold for warm season grasses, which include Bermudagrass, Zoysiagrass, Centipedegrass and St. Augustinegrass. Thus, Arkansas' climate frequently makes lawn maintenance a challenge.  

Listed below are publications written to help Arkansans maintain healthier lawns.
