Our Garden: Fall, winter chores
San Jose Mercury News - Sep 23, 2011

Consider using a mulching lawn mower to return nutrients to the lawn and reduce the amount of green waste going into the landfill. Dethatch and aerate. Dethatching now, when the grass is actively growing, will help it recover.


Do fall chores now
Napa Valley Register - Oct 16, 8212

If your garden includes a lawn, fall is a good time to dethatch it. To determine if your lawn needs dethatching, cut a small square of lawn to a depth of about three inches, and measure the brown layer between the soil and the grass blades.


Lawn tools for the best grass
Washington Post - Sep 21, 2011

A standard metal garden rake, sometimes called a bow rake, is used to help remove weeds, cultivate the soil and level soil amendments before seeding. A dethatching or thatch rake is designed to remove thatch, but it is also excellent for cultivating


Ornamental grass can be a perennial delight

16.10.67

This versatile group of plants is becoming increasing popular. Gardeners planting ornamental grasses are discovering that their variety of sizes, shapes and colors can add texture, motion and grace to the landscape.

What they are

The term ornamental grass is applied to grasses and grass-like plants that are used chiefly for their beauty. They are a large and complex group of plants with a wide range of growth habits and culture.

The great part about it is that you can really pull a lot of thatch out of the lawn. Most lawns will produce enough thatch to fill up one or two yard waste containers.
