Yards & conditions in Fort Worth
Fort Worth sits in USDA hardiness zone 8a with long, hot summers and short, mild winters. Local yards typically deal with expansive clay and caliche and intense summer heat, drought restrictions and shifting clay soils. That’s why Fort Worth lawns are usually planted with heat-tolerant Bermuda, St. Augustine and Zoysia, with the best results in spring through early summer. A local pro factors all of this in — read more in our guide.
