    This is a wonderful product

    This is a wonderful product and service. I figure I would spend just about the same amount with just generic fertilizer which would not be tailored to my lawn. The soil testing, and specific plan shows it's true merit when peak of summer hits, all my neighbors have lawns that are clearly struggling, with dry and brown patches, while my lawn is nice and green, with less water. It is wonderful!

    We have absolutely loved our Sunday services for the past several years. Our lawn looks great all season long even with a dog. The directions on when and how to administer it are always incredibly clear. I enjoy the application because it is quick and easy to do without the mess of traditional fertilizer pellet.

      Growing grass in Los Alamos, New Mexico requires understanding the local climate and soil conditions. Cool-season grasses perform best in this region, with tall fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, and perennial ryegrass being the top recommended species for lawn care in Los Alamos.

      • Choose the right timing - aim for the recommended seeding windows
      • Select appropriate cool-season grass varieties for your Sunday custom lawn care plan
      • Prepare your soil properly before planting
      • Water consistently to maintain soil moisture during germination

      Not sure which grass type is best for your specific yard conditions? Use Sunday's Seed Finder Tool to determine the perfect match. For patching bare spots or overseeding, Sunday premium grass seed provides quality options specifically suited for New Mexico's unique growing conditions.
