Landscaping & Lawn Care in Nebraska

Nebraska sits in the turfgrass transition zone too, but the state's own land grant university helped pioneer a different answer to the region's tough growing conditions: buffalo grass, a native, deep rooted prairie grass developed and refined through decades of turf research at the University of Nebraska, bred specifically to handle the state's hot summers and dry stretches with far less water and mowing than Kentucky bluegrass or tall fescue need. Eastern Nebraska's soil is largely windblown loess, a fine, fertile silt that drains well but can erode on slopes if a lawn is thin or bare, while the sandier ground farther west holds less moisture and dries out faster after a rain. Between the choice of grass type and the soil it's going into, what works for a Lincoln or Omaha lawn often looks different from a lawn farther west in the state.
