Lawn Care in Pittsburgh, PA
In 1909, Pittsburgh became home to the first baseball stadium. That, naturally, meant it needed good grass. Fortunately, many hardy, versatile, and attractive grasses grow well in Pittsburgh's temperate climate. Maybe you're using your property to play informal baseball games or more likely, you just want it to look nice. There are several different grass species that you can use to get the most colorful, versatile, and healthy lawn possible.
Top Grasses in Pennsylvania
Most grasses native to Pennsylvania are cool-season grasses that grow primarily in the spring and fall. And if you want the best-looking yard in the neighborhood, experts at Penn State say to plant your lawn in early fall. Whether you're a novice or a pro when it comes to planting and caring for a lawn, we have advice on the best types to try.
- Zoysia
- Fescue
- Kentucky Bluegrass
- Ryegrass
- Shade Grass
Zoysia is a warm-season grass that is popular for lawns across the country. It prefers full sun to mostly sunny conditions. Zoysia is a dense grass that creates an attractive, colorful lawn once it is established. It creates a thick groundcover and is a very hardy grass compared to most species. Zoysia is a finely textured grass with an attractive dark green hue. Once planted, it forms such a thick groundcover that weeds cannot permeate its surface. Zoysia is a great choice if you tend to forget about lawn care or you are new to lawn maintenance and want a grass that's easy to grow. Zoysia grows well in summer and can survive cold winter temperatures.
Fescue is another attractive grass for a lawn. There are several varieties of fescue grass available. Fescue, especially Tall fescue, is a low-maintenance grass that can grow in soils that are of poorer quality. This is a good option if you're looking for a quick groundcover, as it doesn't require much maintenance once planted. Fescue is one of the faster-growing of all grasses, but it does not grow quite as quickly as perennial ryegrass. Once established, it resists wear and has deep roots that make it tolerant of drought and heat.
Kentucky bluegrass is an adaptable grass that will give your lawn in Pittsburgh a nice texture. Kentucky bluegrass is commonly planted in PA yards. It is a turfgrass of high quality, which means that it is one of the most durable grasses you'll find. Kentucky bluegrass is a cool-season grass that is most prolific in spring and fall. It is a hardy grass that tolerates winter temperatures more easily than many other grasses. It grows best in full sun, but it can handle a little bit of shade, too. However, you may want to consider mixing bluegrass with a fescue blend if you have a lawn that is partly in the sunshine and partly in the shade. Once planted, Kentucky bluegrass can germinate between one and three months. Kentucky bluegrass can either be put down as sod or seed. It is a generally hardy species, but it requires more water and care when it is initially established for optimal growth.
Ryegrass is another species of grass that is popular for planting on lawns. It has a fine, feathery texture and is tolerant of drought. Ryegrass has similar physical characteristics and growing requirements as Kentucky bluegrass. Planted together, they make a good combination if you're looking to use a blend. Typically ryegrass can tolerate some cold, but it doesn't have quite as low of a temperature tolerance as bluegrass. Ryegrass is a variety commonly used on golf courses. It is a cool-season grass that grows mostly in the fall and spring seasons. It establishes in eight to ten weeks, according to Penn State researchers.
If tall trees dominate your property, you might consider getting a shade grass mix. Shade grasses thrive in environmental conditions ranging from full sun to deep shade. Shade grasses are typically cool-season grasses that thrive in spring and fall. They are less active in the summer and go dormant during the winter.
Pittsburgh's Attractions
Rain or shine, the grass will continue to grow in Pittsburgh. With all the amenities available, that means there is always something for you to do here, too. A combination of indoor and outdoor recreational areas, historical sites, museums, and more makes it easy to get out and explore.
Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens
The botanical gardens at Schenley Park are nothing short of spectacular. Along with the manicured gardens, visitors can also see a beautiful historic Victorian mansion repurposed as a greenhouse.
Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium
With special exhibits like the African Savanna, Asian Forest, and other types of ecosystems from around the world, the zoo offers fun and excitement for all ages. There are many unique animals at the zoo, including elephants, leopards, and polar bears. The aquarium contains sharks and many exotic fish species. The zoo encompasses 77 acres and has more than 4,000 animals from the land and sea. About 20 species are either threatened or endangered.
The Andy Warhol Museum
Fans of contemporary artist Andy Warhol should pay a visit to this museum, which contains some of his most acclaimed and inspirational works and artwork. At this museum, Warhol's art is the inspiration for performances, lectures, and new artwork. The museum is the largest in the US devoted to a single artist. This is fitting, however, because Warhol is a Pittsburgh native. The museum contains permanent and rotating exhibits.
Point State Park
Point State Park is located in downtown Pittsburgh. It covers over 35 acres of land and provides the public with numerous recreational opportunities, including biking, boating, and hiking. The Fort Pitt Museum is part of the park and offers visitors a glimpse of Pittsburgh's history as well. Food and drink vendors are on hand to provide refreshments.
