After building a beautiful home, the least thing you would like to see is bare surfaces on the vicinity of a beautiful home. Lawns can add a natural feel to yards and premises.
There is a choice between transplanting lawn from other established lawns and starting from even grass seeds. However, we have seen the emergence and popularity of instant lawns taking shape. An increasing number of people are favouring lawns that are established elsewhere and rolled up for establishment at your own premises.
The key thing when getting ready to receive instant lawn is to prepare your premises by clearing up and getting the fine soil tilth.
Instant lawns have a number of advantages such as the following:
- Saving time of lawn establishment because it is an instant solution. (You can spend a bit more time free to enjoy your new home rather than spending all weekends trying to cultivate, maintain and water a lawn from scratch to its maturity.
- There is a limited chance for weeds to be growing alongside the lawn.
- Reduced risk of failure as the grass is already established.
- Ability to close patches.
- You can establish it all time during the year.
- Reduced management time e.g. from establishment, weeding and other maintenance activities.
- Reduced manual labour to get the lawn to maturity, as it is already at maturity stage when it is sold.
- It is easier to undertake lawn mowing activities because of a relatively flat. surface that can be facilitated by instant lawn.
- Less effort required to establish.
- Better colour texture and appearance than seeded lawn which may look disorderly at the beginning.
Instant lawns also have disadvantages such as the following
- High cost
- The lawn may fail to adapt to the conditions and climate
- Less varieties of grass to choose from and you may have to do with the available limited grass types suitable for instant lawn.
