TREND: artifical TURF

WHILE artificial TURF ISN'T A NEW TREND IN THE LANDSCAPING INDUSTRY, IT SURE IS ONE THAT WE ARE SEEING MORE AND MORE OF HERE IN Nova Scotia, AND WE ARE ALL FOR IT! 

WHERE CAN YOU PUT TURF?
THE MOST COMMON APPLICATIONS WE HAVE SEEN TURF BEING USED HAS BEEN AROUND POOLS AND in backyards for play spaces and putting greens.

WHY DO WE RECOMMEND IT?
​FOR QUITE A FEW REASONS :
1. TURF IS LOW MAINTENANCE! THE APPLICATION OF GRASS AROUND POOLS HAS BEEN PARTICULARLY POPULAR AMONG HOMES IN PLACES LIKE CALIFORNIA AND THE HAMPTONS AND WHILE IT LOOKS AMAZING, THE PRACTICALITY OF IT IS NOT QUITE THERE...TRYING TO KEEP GRASS CLIPPINGS AND DIRT OUT OF THE POOL WOULD JUST PROVE TO BE CONSTANT. IN REPLACING GRASS WITH TURF, THIS MAINTENANCE IS COMPLETELY ELIMINATED. 
2. LESS PRESENCE OF CRITTERS! ARTIFICIAL GRASS IS NOT NATURAL, THEREBY MAKING IT LESS ATTRACTIVE TO INSECTS, PARTICULARLY TICKS (WHICH HAVE BECOME A HUGE NUISANCE HERE IN Nova Scotia). TURF THUS IS GREAT FOR AREAS WHERE CHILDREN AND PETS PLAY. 
3. TURF LOOKS AMAZING YEAR ROUND! YOU WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE THE GREENEST LAWN, even IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR WINTERS. and i know what you may be thinking, artificial turf looks so fake, but you would be surprised how far the products have come. i so highly recommend it, that i too have installed it on my own property.
