The Insight

Turf may seem simple, but it consumes more water, chemicals, and labor than any other plant on your property.

Why It Matters

Maintaining large turf areas drives costs up and often fails new water regulations like AB1572.

Your Play

We help clients reduce turf where it’s wasteful, replacing it with drought-tolerant, sustainable plantings that lower costs and boost compliance.

Many property managers think turf is low-maintenance, but the opposite is true. Turf consumes more resources than any other landscape feature: water, fertilizer, chemicals, and mowing hours all add up quickly.

With new California regulations phasing out non-functional turf, the cost of maintaining it will only grow. At Dinsmore, we help clients evaluate turf zones, reduce excess areas, and transition into drought-tolerant, low-maintenance landscapes. The result is lower water bills, better compliance, and landscapes that stay beautiful year-round.
