As March arrives, lawns across the United States begin to emerge from winter dormancy, marking a crucial period for lawn care. According to TruGreen, early spring is the ideal time to start preparing lawns for the upcoming growing season. This involves strengthening root systems, reviving grass, and improving soil health. The USDA's plant hardiness zone map, updated in 2023, helps gardeners determine the best practices for their region. The United States is divided into three primary lawn zones: north, south, and transition, each requiring specific care strategies. Early attention to lawns can set the stage for a healthy, vibrant turf throughout the year.
