TYPES OF GRASS MIXTURES FOR GREEN AREAS. WHAT SHOULD WE PAY ATTENTION TO WHEN CHOOSING A GRASS MIXTURE?
Of utmost importance is the quality and type of sown grass, selected specifically for the terrain and soil you have. Although the grass carpet is popularly called ryegrass, the truth is that ryegrass is only one of the many types of grass that are used to make a nice lawn. Usually, grass mixtures include up to 4-5 types of different grasses, with the ratio of varieties also determining the general characteristics of the carpet. Since different varieties also have different qualities (sunshine tolerance, need for irrigation, resistance to trampling, etc.), their combination also determines the purpose - grass mixtures for sun, for shade, for sports, for dry areas, etc.
Therefore, it is important to observe several basic criteria when choosing the right grass mixtures; climate, soil, possibility of irrigation and maintenance, sunlight.
For every different idea that a given owner has, there is a corresponding grass mixture. To get a beautiful grass carpet that has a primarily decorative purpose, you need a mixture that gives the green carpet density, has delicate foliage and does not bother with mowing.
Other mixtures with the desired durability effect fit perfectly in gardens where picnics are held, chairs, sun loungers, tables, and various garden accessories are placed.
For an area intended for lots of children's play, parties, dancing, and frequent visits, the best option is grass that is resistant to trampling.
