Types of lawns
Depending on their purpose, all lawns are divided into the following types:
- common, which is grown from the seeds of domestic grasses and is resistant to trampling;
- sports - a lawn made of bluegrass, fescue, and bent grass, specially designed for areas with active traffic;
- parterre, grown from the seeds of Canadian bluegrass and red fescue and having exclusively decorative functions;
