How the work actually works
Four notes on the craft behind a lawn care round: what happens on a visit, how often a lawn should be cut, how a hedge is kept full from the ground up, and what a temperate New Zealand lawn does across the year. General trade knowledge, written down so it is useful even when the details of a particular property are not.
Mowing height, frequency and reading the growth
The one-third rule, why a fixed weekly cut is a bad idea, and what actually happens to a lawn that is cut too short.

Why a hedge goes leggy, what a taper does about it, and why the same job is different work in different months.
Read the noteWhat a Christchurch lawn does through the year
Four seasons of growth, four different jobs — and the winter months that decide how the spring lawn starts.
