Bought my first house and the lawn needs quite a bit of work as the previous owners did nothing. I am willing to put in the time and $ to improve the lawn, but I am a lawn care newbie. I’m considering some mulch around the trees and growing grass (fescue?) the rest of the way. (And yes – the leaves are currently being removed)
Any recommendations or resources I should use are greatly appreciated.
I am in Charlotte, NC (Zone 8a)

Tree has to go! Too much shade and competition from the roots. You could probably “band-aid” it by laying sod but you’re looking 2-3 growing seasons MAX before you end up right in this spot.
Maybe one of the cool season guys would chime in but being a warm season expert—either the tree goes or you get creative with an ornamental bed.
