Southern Scapes offers lawn planting services including:

  • Dry seeding
  • Hydroseeding
  • Sod

We can help you select the planting process and species of grass that is right for your property. We will help you implement the best lawn care program that will encourage its health and beauty for years to come.

Hydroseeding generally consists of a combination of water, Fiber mulch, fertilizer, and seed to create a substance that is easily spread over the planting area eliminating the need for straw. The seed has already started germinating before it is applied so it takes root quickly; within approximately 10-12 days, green grass will appear. This is an effective method for hillsides or sloping lawns to help with erosion control.

Dry seeding with straw mulch is a time-tested application. This traditional method holds moisture and is one of the best practices for hot summer seeding.

We also offer a “turn-key” sod installation process from start to finish including all the necessary ground preparation, topsoil, grading, and installation.

We offer free consultations.
