    Hi,

    We recently purchase a house and looking to upgrade our yard. We live in Orlando Fl are front yard is dead lets put it this way. We know that the 2 previous owner tried to grow sod without success. the big problem ( I think) is that We have 2 massive oak tree in our front yard 4 to 5 feet diameter very tall giving us a maximum sun light of 45 min throughout the day and we just trimmed them. My front yard is fairly big around 7000 sq-ft I collect around 2500 gallon of leaf throughout the year yep not cool. So here is our dilemma Should we cut 1 or both trees to get some grass and even take the property value down and have the neighbors hate us. Or growing grass will balance the lost of the Trees for the property value. or is there any other solution... I was thinking to put down some St Augustin sapphire. thanks

      Can you even cut down the oaks? We have a section in town that prohibits any oaks from being removed. One guy did over a w/e and needless to say, he lost his retirement due to fines.
      The trick is to landscape your yard w/o removing the trees. You could possibly trim out a lot of the laterals letting some light in to help undergrowth and I'm sure the soil needs lots of attention. Then find what grows well in a shaded area. If I have time I'll post a handful of plants.
      Do us all a favor and take a handful of pictures from several angles and I'm sure the ideas will flood in.
      If you feel that you must burn our flag, please wrap yourself in it first.

                  Oh..though I feel sorry for that guy, yet it's good to know that removing Oaks has been prohibited. It's no doubt important to save them.

                        Advice

                        eeping a lawn beautiful all season long does not need to be complicated – keep grass lawn care and maintenance simple with this quick and easy primer.

                        So much of caring for a lawn and plants in the landscape comes down to knowing what needs to be done and when to do it.

                        Timing can make a big difference. Like Lawn Watering. The look of the grass and turf can make the maintenance aspect a struggle or a breeze.

                        For a lawn that looks great and holds up year round master these lawn care basics.
                        Lawn Watering

                        Water is becoming a bigger issue around the country. Mother Nature doesn’t always do her part in keeping the lawn watered well. However, that’s what underground sprinkler systems are for.

                        It’s impossible for me to give you a perfect daily watering schedule on how frequently to irrigate your lawn – this article on >>> lawn watering <<< may help.

                        The diversity of areas and soils hold moisture differently. Various grass types require different watering needs. On top of that, lawns require changes to irrigation schedules as seasons change.

                        In grass lawn care, determining when to water is much easier if you let the grass tell you. When grass starts to wilt it is time to water. When leaf blades begin to fold and footprints remain visible long after they have been made.

                        The quantity of water applied to a lawn is critical when determining if enough water is applied to wet the entire root zone. That plays a major factor in determining how deep a root system will grow. Giving the lawn a quick drink every day or so only surface waters the soil.

                        This does not allow the water penetrate deep enough to build strong deep roots. Infrequent irrigation for longer periods of time allows the water to reach a depth of 4 to 6 inches. This encourages deep root growth and healthy turf able to handle periods of drought.

                        Including rainfall, lawns need an inch or two of water per week to thrive. Using a rain gauge will help determine how much additional watering will be required.
