Yards & conditions in Charlotte
Charlotte sits in USDA hardiness zone 8a with hot, humid summers and cool winters. Local yards typically deal with heavy red clay and the tricky transition-zone climate where both warm- and cool-season grasses are grown. That’s why Charlotte lawns are usually planted with transition-zone turf such as tall fescue, Bermuda and Zoysia, with the best results in early fall for cool-season turf and late spring for warm-season turf. A local pro factors all of this in — read more in our guide.
When to schedule irrigation in Charlotte
New irrigation installs in Charlotte are easiest in early fall for cool-season turf and late spring for warm-season turf, before peak watering demand sets in. In colder areas, schedule winterization each fall to protect the lines.
