Yards & conditions in San Diego
San Diego sits in USDA hardiness zone 10b with dry Mediterranean summers and wet, mild winters. Local yards typically deal with varied clay-loam soils and ongoing drought, strict water-use rules and a strong push toward low-water landscaping. That’s why San Diego lawns are usually planted with drought-tolerant fescue blends and low-water groundcovers, with the best results in fall and early spring. A local pro factors all of this in — read more in our guide.
When to schedule lawn care in San Diego
