How much do you know about your lawn? Many homeowners look outside and appreciate their beautiful green turf—but it may surprise you to learn about the complex inner world of grass species. Our team doesn’t just offer expert grass care in Frisco. We also know the ins and outs of these incredible plants, including what’s needed to help grass thrive.
Let’s review a few key facts about this plant family.
Three Fun Facts About Grass Plants
People have been enjoying lawns for hundreds of years, and growing grass for thousands of years, but it’s been around for much longer than that. Here are a few facts about your turf:
Grass has enormous variety and versatility. Grass plants make up one of the largest plant families, accounting for turfgrass, wheat, sugarcane, and so much more. Even turfgrass comes in a huge variety, with over 1,400 types in the United States alone! Many of these types have different features and grass care instructions, so check in with your lawn maintenance team if you’re ever in doubt.
Roots may be more important than you realize. Through its root system, grass has an intricate hidden life that you’ll rarely see. Roots play a key role in anchoring the plant, collecting water, and absorbing nutrients. Some grass types, called rhizomes, can even use their root systems to spread out and reproduce.
Soil composition plays a key factor. The success of your lawn is enormously dependent on soil quality. Soil needs to be an ideal mixture of clay, silt, and sand to help grass flourish. In Frisco, soil composition tends to be heavily clay-based, which is why it often needs to be rebalanced and replenished for thriving turf.
