A Seasonal Guide to Low-Maintenance, Evergreen Gardens
The Western Cape’s rainy season is upon us—and that’s great news if you’re planning a garden makeover. While natural lawns tend to get muddy and go dormant in winter, artificial lawn from Lawngevity stays lush, clean, and green 365 days a year.

Here’s why May to September is the ideal window to install artificial grass in the Western Cape, and why more homeowners are switching to water-wise turf solutions.
1. No Mud, No Mowing, No Mess
Winter rains mean muddy footprints, waterlogged patches, and dying grass. Artificial lawn offers a clean, evergreen surface that's perfect for kids, pets, and entertaining—with zero mowing or maintenance.
2. Perfect Timing: Winter Installs Well
The softer, moist soil during Cape winter makes artificial lawn installation easier and more stable. Our team ensures a level, compacted base and proper drainage—perfect conditions for a long-lasting result.
3. Pet-Approved & Easy to Clean
From muddy paws to digging disasters, pets can wreak havoc on natural grass. Lawngevity’s pet-friendly artificial turf is durable and hygienic—and can be paired with RoccoSpritz and RoccoPro TurfClean for spot cleaning and full-service refreshes.
4. Water-Wise Garden Upgrade
As a drought-prone province, the Western Cape benefits from water-smart landscaping. Artificial lawn needs no irrigation, helping homeowners reduce their water bills while staying green through the summer heat.
5. Be Spring-Ready Early
Skip the busy spring rush and book your lawn installation now. Your garden will be ready for sunshine, socialising, and braais the moment warmer weather returns.
⚡ Ideal Spaces for Artificial Lawn:
Play areas and jungle gyms
Pet parks and vet yards
Garden paths and pool surrounds
Balconies, rooftops & small courtyards
Schools, creches & nursery play zones
⚙️ Lawngevity Pro Tip:
Winter installations allow us to spend more time on base prep, drainage, and edging—so your lawn performs better and lasts longer. Ask us about custom drainage grids for high-moisture gardens.
