But for a growing number of lawn enthusiasts around the Goulburn Valley, spring means something else.
It’s lawn season.
For those chasing a low, clean and manicured finish, a cylinder mower can take lawn presentation to another level. Cylinder mowers use a reel and bedknife to produce a clean, scissor-like cut and are particularly suited to lawns maintained at lower cutting heights.
At Shepp City Garden Equipment, the team can help people looking to get into cylinder mowing, as well as experienced lawn enthusiasts wanting to take their lawn to the next level.
Choosing the right cylinder mower starts with understanding the lawn. Grass type, lawn condition, desired cutting height, how often you plan to mow and the finish you’re trying to achieve all play a part.
The same principle applies to every mower. There isn’t one mower that’s right for everyone. A manicured residential lawn has very different requirements to a large house block, lifestyle property or several acres of fast-growing grass.
For some customers, the right choice might be a cylinder mower and a serious lawn care setup. For others, it could be a quality push or self-propelled mower. When there’s a lot more ground to cover, a ride-on or zero-turn can dramatically reduce the time spent mowing.
That’s why the team at Shepp City Garden Equipment starts by asking about your property and what you’re trying to achieve. The aim isn’t to automatically sell you the cheapest mower or the most expensive. It’s to help you find the right mower for your lawn, your property and the result you want.
Getting ready for spring doesn’t necessarily mean buying a new mower either. If you’re happy with the equipment already in the shed, now is the time to make sure it’s ready for the growing season. A professional service can help identify maintenance issues before the grass really takes off, while correctly maintained cutting equipment can make a noticeable difference to the finished lawn.
Lawn fertilisers, weed control products, parts and other lawn care products can also help get your property ready for the warmer months.
Tell us about your lawn, your property and what you want to achieve. We’ll help you find the right equipment to get there.
