Grass seed for ornamental lawns and intensive use
Ornamental grass is a fine-leaved grass seed mixture that creates a neat and refined look. This type of grass seed is commonly used in gardens where appearance is the priority and the lawn is less intensively used.
For gardens that experience heavier use, such as those with playing children or pets, stronger grass seed mixtures are available. These combine high wear resistance with quick recovery.
When to sow grass seed for best results
Grass seed is best sown in spring or autumn. During these periods, soil temperatures are favourable and sufficient moisture is available for rapid germination. Proper soil preparation ensures even establishment and a strong lawn.
After sowing, regular watering is important to prevent the seeds from drying out. Once the grass has grown sufficiently, the first mowing can be done carefully.
