Important! Before sowing the lawn, you should dig a plot and remove weeds along with the rhizome.

With quality care, it can please with its greenery up to 15 years. This type of grass is often recommended to be mowed, this will help maintain a smooth lawn. It is recommended to plant in the spring, this will allow the plant to form a powerful root system and normally tolerate frosts. It does not require frequent watering and can grow in sunny areas.

For wet soils

For wet soil, the shoot is very suitable. The variety is quite resistant to trampling, thanks to the dense stems it can be planted in children's playgrounds and sports sites. It grows poorly in the shade.

The height of the grass usually does not exceed 15 cm, this allows you not to mow the grass often. The grass should be covered for the winter, as it is not able to tolerate low temperature conditions. Also, this type of grass will not be able to protect the site from the appearance of weeds on it.

Shade tolerant

Shade-tolerant plants include red fescue. Perennial. The height of the grass can reach up to 70 cm. It can easily tolerate low temperatures, does not require shelter. It can grow on moist soils. It has a fairly strong root system, sometimes it can go down to 1 m into the ground. The color of red fescue can be from bluish-green to saturated, bright green.

Fast growing

To a fast-growing species include ryegrass. Suitable for sowing tennis courts, football and basketball fields. This is a perennial plant, life expectancy can be up to 10 years.

Did you know? Green lawns are capable of retaining up to 60 tons of dust per 1 hectare of land, so the plantings will be an excellent find for allergy sufferers.

Due to the rapid proliferation, ryegrass is able to close empty spaces on the lawn, and also quickly resume after damage. If the winter is snowless, then there is a risk that the entire grass cover will freeze out, so it is recommended to mulch or cover with agrofiber. The variety is resistant to frequent mowing.

The most unpretentious type of lawn

A beautiful and unpretentious lawn can be grown on your site. There are two types that are easy to grow and care for, these are meadow grass and Moorish.

Important! All lawn crops should be carried out on a quiet, sunny day. That is how you can ensure even sowing.

Meadow lawn

This is an imitation of a meadow. Typically, a mixture of meadow grass contains wildflowers, perennial and annual cereal crops. Its main advantages are decorativeness and ease of care (requires two mowing per year: the first - the beginning of June, the second - the end of August).

Watering only in hot weather. Such a lawn is not intended for outdoor activities, as it does not withstand trampling. Planting can ennoble the site, and will also attract various insects: bees, butterflies, dragonflies.

Mauritanian

Contains various lawn grasses, as well as flowers: cornflowers, daisies, poppies. The care is more complicated than meadow, because if weeds begin to break through, then the Moorish lawn will become less attractive.

It requires grass mowing in the first year of planting, in late August or early September. The main advantage of this type is that in the cities there are fewer flowers, and this planting can beautifully decorate areas near the house.

How to care for unpretentious herbs

Almost all herbs do not require special care efforts. The most basic thing you need to do is prepare the ground before planting the lawn. If it is very hot in the summer, it is recommended to install a drip irrigation system or arrange sprinkling.

Watering is carried out exclusively in the evening, after sunset, this will not burn herbaceous plants, and they will not lose their color. Mowing is carried out as the grass "carpet" grows. Most often, two times a year is enough.

Registration of a personal plot or summer cottage is an interesting and fascinating affair. A beautiful lawn will not only decorate the site, but also fill the empty soil with beautiful herbs or wildflowers.
