Gardening in Lawson
Lawson gets regular frost from late autumn into spring, and gusty westerlies can dry gardens quickly in September and October. Mulching beds and keeping lawns at a sensible height help gardens cope with both.
The bushland around Lawson makes fire preparation essential. We clear gutters, leaf litter and fine fuels around homes, cut back shrubs against walls, and keep grass short through summer.
