With the arrival of the new year, many people are starting to think that spring is getting closer, and with it, the time to start getting their gardens ready. And it is precisely at this moment when many users consider using grass to decorate their garden, and with it the question arises: Natural grass or artificial grass? This article aims to answer this question by showing the benefits of artificial grass, in many cases unknown, and thus helping the customer to decide.
Starting from the beginning, we should talk about the preparation of the land. The natural option would involve preparing the land in which the grass will be planted, both for its fertility and to clean it of weeds that could contaminate our natural grass in the future. Once this work is finished, the grass would have to be planted, in many cases mixed with grass to give it more body, and watered frequently to end with an important wait until seeing the desired grass.
With the artificial option, everything is much faster and easier. The professionals at Gardenstore install any of the different models and tones in a few days, according to the client’s needs. And always adapting to the design required by the user. Thus making it possible for a cold terrazzo or flagstone floor to be transformed in a few days into a beautiful garden with a highly durable lawn.
But where artificial grass really takes the lead is in maintenance. Although the installation may be somewhat more expensive than that of the natural variant, maintenance is much cheaper. A natural lawn requires a large amount of water, especially in summer, is a nesting place for insects and loses its color due to burns caused by excessive heat or cold. Not to mention weeds and pests. Its artificial variant remains unchanged in the face of all these inconveniences, with the savings that this implies. In terms of water, for example, it represents a saving of 90%, since it is only necessary to water it once a month to clean it of impurities. Artificial grass may need to be brushed to regain its shape in places with a lot of traffic, which will further increase its durability in perfect condition. Otherwise, it is all about enjoying a landscape that remains green all year round without any worries about burns, pests or cuts.
