Yards & conditions in New York
New York sits in USDA hardiness zone 7b with cold, snowy winters and warm summers. Local yards typically deal with rocky, acidic clay and freeze-thaw cycles, rocky ground and a compressed growing season. That’s why New York lawns are usually planted with cool-season fescue, Kentucky bluegrass and ryegrass, with the best results in early fall and spring. A local pro factors all of this in — read more in our guide.
