Lawn Solutions Australia's video: Christmas lawn displays Keeping your lawn healthy and your grass green

We love the Christmas holidays out on our lawns, getting the yard looking great and putting up the Christmas decorations. In this video we thought we would provide a few helpful tips to help keep your lawn green and healthy, so it looks just as good as the Christmas decorations. Plus, we have a chance to win a $1,500 Bunnings Voucher… https://bit.ly/376hIvJ Fertilise your lawn One of the quickest and easiest ways to give your lawn a boost is to give it a fertilise. A hit of nitrogen will promote leaf growth and greener colour which will help ensure your lawn plays an integral part in the Christmas display. If very careful you could try applying fertiliser in a Christmas shape or pattern and mow around the perimeter of the area over the coming weeks. Just make sure you water in the fertiliser really well to prevent leaf burn. Shout out to Aaron who recently created a Moustache on his lawn for Movember. Add some instant colour with ColourGuard Plus If you haven’t got much time to work with, a great way to give your lawn an instant green-up is by using a pigment like ColourGuard Plus. ColourGuard Plus is absorbed into the leaf of your grass giving it a nice green colour instantly. You can go quite light with your application, or if you are looking for a really vibrant dark green to get into the Christmas spirit, you can apply the product at a higher concentration. Colourguard Plus could also be used to colour in some Christmas stencils on the lawn, maybe some bells or holly, helping your lawn become even more a part of the Christmas display. https://lawnsolutionsaustralia.com.au/shop/default/colourguard-2ltr-hose-on.html Mowing Stripes If your lawn is in good shape, you might be able to add some style to your home front by getting some stripes going on your lawn. This is where the lawn looks like it has different lighter and darker stripes because of the way the light reflects off the leaf that has been pushed down in opposite directions. A cylinder mower or reel mower is ideal, but you can also get a similar effect if you have access to a heavy roller. By mowing the lawn in opposite directions in the same lines on a regular basis, you can improve the definition of these stripes. Christmas Lawn Ornaments When it comes to the Christmas lawn ornaments and other decorations, just remember that they may need moving slightly every now and again so the grass below it doesn’t die over the holiday period. A good watering, once they are moved, will help the grass bounce back quicker. If there are any heavy objects on the lawn, it would also be recommended to give the area a good aerate with a garden fork once these ornaments have been removed. Bonus Tip: You can save the need for regular mowing around your Christmas ornaments by applying a PGR like Primo Maxx that slows vertical growth. https://lawnsolutionsaustralia.com.au/shop/default/primo-maxx-1l.html The Great Australian Lawn Off Christmas Competition So, your Christmas decorations are up and the lawn is looking pretty impressive also, well this month there’s a $1,500 BUNNINGS VOUCHER up for grabs + a Lawn Solutions Prize Pack!
