Growing An Earth-Friendly Lawn

(NAPSA)-If you want a lush lawn, stop killing your weeds-crowd them out, instead.

That's the advice from experts who say that new, environmentally friendly types of turfgrass are dense enough to prevent weeds and crabgrass from germinating, without using any chemicals. The turf presents a green alternative for homeowners worried about the effects of weed killers on the environment and on the animals that live in their yard.

Turfgrass such as Zoysia also naturally resists disease and insects, presenting an even greener solution for the yard. In addition, the turf has a hearty and deep rooting system, meaning the grass stays lush and full, without frequent watering or fertilizing.

The turfgrass is sold as individual starter plant plugs, rather than as seed, meaning it can be planted into bare ground or existing lawns.
