The National Association of Landscape Professionals was curious about how well Americans know their lawns. Here’s what they found:
- Over 3 in 4 adults in the U.S. have a home with a lawn or landscape
- 94% of those had landscape services done at their home in the past year
- 81% said they did some of their own work
- 44% said they had a professional help them
- Of those polled, 74% believe they know how to care for their lawn and 68% said they are confident in their lawn care knowledge
- However, the findings indicated that many Americans are overconfident in their ability to care for their lawn:
- 54% falsely believe if a lawn isn’t green, it’s not healthy
- Nearly 1 in 3 said they weren’t sure how often a lawn should be watered
- 69% admitted their lawn could use improvement
