These grasses do not require as much time, energy and water as some higher maintenance varieties do.
Easy care grass is one of the most wanted types of grass for garden landscaping. Easy care grass is becoming more and more popular because of its great appearance, low cost to maintain, disease-free hardiness and much less water is required. These qualities have been making them highly desirable for those who love green lawn but has limited space or time for maintenance.
Some popular low maintenance types include Zoysia, Bermuda and Kentucky Bluegrass.
These grasses need less mowing (every one to three weeks if left unmowed) than other grasses because they have short leaf blades that grow slow. In fact, no high degree of maintenance is necessary with these in general except during upkeep every month when you will need to rake up fallen leaves from your backyard. They're also a good choice for those who suffer from allergies because they are generally weed-free.Zoysia grass ( Zoysia japonica) is a popular turf-type warm-season grass that does not need mowing. It has narrow leaves which give it a blue-green colour. The blades grow where they emerge from the sheaths and spread out in all directions, forming dense clumps of foliage with very little to no vertical development after establishment. Zoysia grass lawns do not require irrigation or fertiliser but they require high levels of sunlight for fast growth.
No-mow grass varieties have the ability to grow low in height - in order to maintain no-mow grass, just need to rake it occasionally. You may also aerate your soil every once in a while but some varieties of these kind do not even require that. Because they grow low and have fine leaf design, no-mow grasses are more appealing for those who love lawns but do not want the hassle of having constant yard work. These ground covers eliminate a lot of weed growth.
Bermuda grass has dark green colour, laying flat on the ground and long roots that grow deep underground.
Similar choices with low maintenance requirements include Velvet grass, Zoysia grass, Bentgrass and more. They offer features like drought resistance, less watering needs and soil erosion control.
Bermuda grass, Zoysia japonica, Pampas grass (Cortaderia selloana) and Buffalo grass (Bufadendum) are a few examples of drought-tolerant varieties. These types need only moderate amounts of maintenance and care. In order to maintain these types of lawns properly, you may want to aerate your soil, fertilise and use organic pesticides.
