What lawn alternatives are there?

Susan Price March 4, 2022Last updated: March 4, 2022

Please help me find a landscape company near me who can advise me on alternative ground cover for a very shady sloping area and install as well.

Thank you

Choosing a more eco-friendly ground cover than Kentucky blue grass that will be better for slopes and shady areas may not mean sourcing the right landscaping company as much as choosing a product and then deciding how to proceed.You may be able to find a company to lay a more drought-resistant turf that will do better in the shade, but you may also be able to just buy a bag of seed much cheaper. First check out this page about alternatives –

你可以给当地的绿化公司打电话寻求指导，他们可能会帮助你寻找替代品。我们很快就会有一个绿色建筑目录，你可以在那里找到当地的承包商，但不幸的是，我们现在还没有做到!
