What can you replace a lawn with? A flower meadow is a great alternative
You need to take care of your lawn to keep it looking nice. It requires pruning, fertilization and care, which takes time and a lot of nerves. The grass is also susceptible to dryness and diseases, which is why unsightly dry patches often appear on it.

Instead of a traditional lawn, choose a flower meadow. This is a great alternative that does not require mowing or fertilizing because it can handle itself very well. meadows are also resistant to drying, and strong sun should not harm them. Flowering plants will be home to many beneficial insects, and their roots will be great for storing rainwater. Additionally, they lower the temperature, so the earth will not heat up very much. Flower meadows are increasingly used in cities, but they are also gaining more and more supporters in home gardens.
When to sow a flower meadow? You have a chance to sow it even before the first days of summer
You can buy the flower meadow mixture in any gardening store. We can choose between annual and perennial mixtures, as well as combinations, i.e. a combination of annuals and perennials. However, before you sow it, remember to dig up the ground and clean it of other plants and weeds. The meadow can be sown even until the beginning of June, and we scatter 1 to 2 grams of seeds per 1 square meter.
