There are various types of lawns and each one has its own perks. For homeowners, it’s only a matter of selecting the appropriate lawn type according to their needs and resources.
Conventional lawns are made up of small numbers of fine turf grasses like Kentucky bluegrass. A lot of homeowners choose this type of grasses because they are attractive.
To keep them green, well-manicured, and homogenous, people neatly mow them at least weekly and regularly water, edge, fertilize and also treat them for pests – all of this can be daunting and time-consuming tasks.
Low-maintenance lawns are made up of a variety of hard, drought-tolerant slow-growing and low-height turf grasses, fescues, and wear-tolerant broad-leaf species like clover. These types need lesser mowing, fertilizing and watering than conventional ones.
Low-maintenance lawns also typically appear less uniform than conventional lawns. For a lot of homeowners, low-maintenance lawns could mean a shift in thinking – that a less perfect appearance is well-worth the savings in time and costs as well as the environmental benefits.
