Lawn maintenance during winter does not require much effort, but is important with regard to how your lawn will grow and look during the following summer months.

Your lawn will need regular watering, especially in summer rainfall areas.  At least one watering per week should suffice.

You can fertilize your lawn with a fertilizer that has a high in phosphate.  This will encourage root development; ensuring that your lawn stays strong and healthy throughout winter.

Your lawn will not grow as profusely during the winter months, so you will only need to mow it once in a while. 

Make sure that all dead leaves and other organic remains are raked off your lawn, as this will prevent the lawn from getting all the necessary sun and moisture it needs to survive.

Just before spring arrives, you can fertilize your lawn with a fertilizer high in nitrogen, which promotes leaf growth.  You should also aerate your lawn at this time to ensure a beautiful, thriving lawn during spring and summer.

Always remember to water you lawn well after applying any kind of fertilizer.
