In specialized shops you will find a variety of types of lawn grasses. They are supplied in special blends for ease of use. Types of herbs are mixed to obtain specific properties in the final product:
fast germination;
resistance to weather conditions;
resistance to mechanical stress.
In such mixtures, there are up to eight types of various herbs. The best solution is a mixture with five or more types of lawn grasses.
Types of grass
Among the most widespread lawn grasses are common bent grass, perennial ryegrass, red fescue or meadow bluegrass.
Now let's take a closer look at the properties of these herbs. Meadow bluegrass should be used in waterlogged areas of the soil, as it requires a lot of moisture. But this variety does not need to be flooded with water - the lawn will not withstand such a test. Meadow bluegrass is the most frost-resistant among lawn grasses, therefore it is most often used in countries with a harsh climate.
The next type of lawn grass is pasture ryegrass. This variety is absolutely drought-resistant. Water such a lawn as often as possible, use a spray system. Do not use this variety for sowing on heavy soils. Pasture ryegrass is generally the most capricious variety of grass.
Red fescue is a more environmentally friendly variety. Even on poor soil and with intermittent watering, such a lawn will grow and develop. Of course, in order to preserve the beautiful appearance of the lawn, even such stable grass must be properly cared for.
Now about the bent grass - this is not quite an ordinary grass. It spreads creeping shoots across the lawn and uses them to destroy weeds. But this grass requires constant watering - even a short drought will kill it.
Choose grasses based on the conditions in your area. The right choice will keep your lawn beautiful for several years and allow it to develop.
Types of lawns
The parterre lawn is the most attractive. Smooth coverage and soft grass, which, according to legend, will preserve a chicken egg that has fallen from a height. But keep in mind that it has high drainage requirements and needs a certain slope angle of the surface. Do not forget about timely watering and regular haircuts.
The best option for entertainment would be a decorative lawn. It does not require such careful maintenance, is resistant to mechanical damage, and is easy to plant. The most sustainable type of decorative lawn is Canada Green. This choice will allow you to get an even grass cover in the shortest possible time.
The best option for sowing football fields would be the Sport lawn mixture. The “sport” type of lawn for seeding golf courses with the self-explanatory name “golf” is most suitable for the conditions of playing this sport, providing good coverage at a low grass height. Of course, these lawns require professional maintenance.
