Yes, we do.

When is the best time to water my garden and plants?

The early morning is the best time to water your garden.

How do I know if plants and grass are too wet or too dry?

The best way to determine, is to purchase a soil moisture tester. They are available at most Cape Garden Centre stores in the Cape Town region or at your local garden store.

Can I put compost on my lawn to make it green?

Yes, we recommend mushroom compost from Stanler Farms. As well as lawn dressing to level out the grass. The best time to do this is in Spring. In Winter the grass may form a fungus on top and suffocate, while in Summer it may burn.

What factors play a role in keeping my grass green?

Grass needs three main elements to stay healthy and green. Sun, water and nutrition. Here's a few tips to managing your lawn well:

  • If you have a lot of shade casting over your lawn, then your grass may not do so well. Consider where you plant your trees.
  • Nutrition will accelerate grass growth right through the year.
  • Cut your grass regularly. The more you cut it, the stronger it grows. Which leads to greener grass.
  • Increase the amount of watering in summertime.
