Eric Clapton sang “Let it rain, rain, rain.” Do you suppose his lawn was looking brown and thirsty?
Ok, probably not, but for people who are trying to grow and maintain a beautiful lawn, rain’s a constant concern, especially in the Bay Area where the weather does what it wants when it wants, regardless of what’s happening a few blocks over. The alternative has always been to install a sprinkler system or stand outside with a hose, watering while the world passes you by.
Not any more.
Recently Governor Jerry Brown has issued an executive order to address the current drought. The provisions include temporarily halting environmental regulations, urging restaurants to only serve water if customers request it, and ordering homeowners associations to stop fining their residents if they leave their lawns unwatered.
Why worry about water or weather when you can have a pristine lawn that’s oblivious to both? The secret is choosing natural-looking, affordable, easy-to-care-for synthetic grass. When you install synthetic turf, there’s no such thing as too little or too much water. The sky is crying? Who cares? Come rain or come shine, your lawn will look great – and you’ll be on your way.
