Lawn is one of the most spectacular elements of landscape design, but only owners of large plots can afford this green luxury. For small areas, you can use an alternative to a green blanket, combining business with pleasure – grass paths. In this case, lawn grass is sown paths designed to move around the site and garden. Such green streams can beautifully lead to a pond, a bathhouse or a playground. They can be placed on plains and slopes, and if the slopes are large, it is recommended to build green steps.

Lawn paths can only be grassy or multicolored, including stunted flowering plants. In addition, they can be combined with stones placed in small islands or laid out in the form of curbs.

How to make lawn paths with your own hands
Making lawn paths with your own hands is very simple. First of all, they determine their locations and dig up the soil, carefully removing the roots of weeds. The prepared soil is covered with a layer of compost 3-5 cm thick . These works are best planned for the fall. In the spring, the ground is leveled, achieving the same level over the entire area, and well compacted (you can use a skating rink).

Any lawn grass is used for sowing, but it is better to give preference to plants that are resistant to loads: meadow bluegrass, white vole, red fescue. The ideal option is a mixture for a sports lawn. To achieve a dense layer, the seeds are mixed with sand, evenly distributed over the entire surface, and again rammed with a roller or roller. You need to water the paths very carefully, spraying water with special nozzles.

It will be possible to walk on lawn paths only after the plants finally get stronger – this will happen towards the end of summer. If there are no detours on the site, then it is most reasonable to build combined paths: lay large foot stones on the path, and then sow open areas with grass. This option is best used for all tracks of daily use, otherwise leaving the house after the rain will be problematic.

Caring for grass paths is no different from caring for a traditional lawn – they require regular mowing, periodic fertilizing, watering, aeration of the soil. A narrow path is trimmed along, a wide one across. The ideal height of the grass for the operated paths is 3-5 centimeters. The average life expectancy of living garden paths is 6-7 years, then all the work described will have to be repeated from beginning to end.
