4 Seasons Turf & Garden Design

By Sant McClaire


We are always doing our best to further our insights on the turf business to develop a thorough understanding of landscape gardening we look at the seasonal effects on turfing and turf growth. Beyond that we're also looking at ways to diversify, to tailor our services and expertise towards new trends in garden design. These new trends include decking and fence panels.

We will begin by looking at the demand for turf the year through. We've been at this business for over 2 decades and we can tell you that the demand peaks in mid-April before gradually ceasing in the winter time. Why is that? It is because people want to make best use of their garden through the summer. They may want to play football or enjoy a BBQ with friends and family. As we reach the peak of winter, the demand drops.

As with the need for turf, the actual growth of turf is based on the climate. It may surprise (or may not depending on your background) that in season dictates how quickly turf may grow. In the winter it slows and in the summer it grows. Gardeners need adjust the height of the mower and sprinkler accordingly. Obviously, you will need more water for your garden over the summer.

Now let's look at some modern garden design trends. In more recent times the use of decking has been a more significant feature in family gardens. Decking works so well for family gatherings, regardless of the season. Despite the belief of some people, decks can actually be quite cheap and simple for you to install - If indeed you have a love of DIY. Those who don't, fear not, you can hire laborers to carry out this task for you.

We hope this feature has proven valuable to you. The turf industry - and that of garden design - is evolving considerably year on year. We are of course more than happy to assist in your enquiries.
