Flowerscapes Garden Design & Landscaping on Feb 23, 2013A gentle rain is always welcome to water in lawn treatments that need it. Heavy rains tend to wash away granular supplements and can even negate some freshly put down liquid supplements. I usually welcome the rain but I need a break. Hotlanta is now Wetlanta.Helpful Reply
