Artificial turf in Mission, TX
Mission (Hidalgo County) has about 87,292 residents. Here is what the local climate means for a turf lawn, which of our nine lines we would pick, and who can install it.
The climate in Mission, in numbers
Summer afternoons in Mission average 99 F, so a lawn here spends months under strong sun. Real grass needs a lot of water to survive that; turf needs none.
About 22 inches of rain fall a year, less than a lawn needs in summer, so irrigation makes up the difference.
USDA hardiness zone 10a.
