Frequently asked questions
Will real grass actually survive a UAE summer?
Yes, if it is the right species with working irrigation. Seashore paspalum is the standard choice because it tolerates heat and salty or TSE water; Bermuda is the tougher, higher-maintenance alternative. What kills lawns is not the heat itself but irrigation gaps — a broken sprinkler head in July shows up as a brown patch within days.
When is planting season in the UAE?
October to March. Planting in this window gives roots months of mild weather to establish before the first summer, which is when badly timed plants die. Summer is for maintenance only — watering, light pruning and pest checks. If you arrive mid-year, resist planting until October; spend the interim fixing irrigation instead.
Is artificial grass a better choice than real turf?
It depends on use. Artificial wins in deep shade, small dog runs and rental properties where zero-risk matters; it needs no water and stays green in photos. But it becomes uncomfortably hot underfoot in summer and still needs brushing and rinsing. For areas where children play outdoors through the warm months, real paspalum is the kinder surface.
How often does a villa garden actually need professional visits?
Twice a month covers most standard gardens: mowing, edging, hedge and shrub pruning, weeding and an irrigation glance. Large plots or gardens with many palms may justify weekly visits in the October–May growing season. Whatever the frequency, insist the visit includes checking the irrigation, not just cutting things — irrigation faults cause more damage than missed mowing ever does.
How do I book a gardener without getting wildly different quotes?
You will get different quotes — that is the market — so the goal is comparing them on the same scope. Photograph the garden, count the palms, note the plot size and list the tasks, then put that identical brief to several vendors. In the tamam app you can see multiple verified garden vendors with AED ranges, book and pay in-app, and rebook the same crew if the first visit goes well.

Mistakes to avoid
Watering at midday because that is when you remembered
Midday irrigation loses a large share of the water to evaporation before it reaches the roots, and droplets on foliage under full sun can scorch leaves. The fix is not discipline but automation: a controller or tap timer set to finish its cycle around dawn waters better than any human ever will.
Letting crews over-trim your palms
The carved 'pineapple' look, where healthy green fronds are stripped away, weakens palms, reduces fruit and invites pests. Green fronds are the tree's engine. Instruct any crew to remove only brown and dying fronds and never to cut above the horizontal line of the crown, and be suspicious of anyone who argues.
Buying lush imported plants for a west-facing position
The prettiest plant at the garden centre is often a greenhouse import that has never felt real sun. Placed on a west-facing balcony or bed, it collapses within weeks of warm weather. Ask where stock was grown, favour locally acclimatised and slightly weathered specimens, and match the plant to the exposure rather than to the photo in your head.
