Mow less often and let your plants bloom!<\/strong> <\/strong><\/summary>\n

Mowing low and preventing the wildflowers that are native to Latvia from flowering makes lawns species poor and impoverished;<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Check if early mowing is necessary!<\/strong><\/strong><\/summary>\n

Early mowing is a way to limit the development of expansive species, but it is not necessary in all urban grassland areas! Expansive species such as ground-elder (Aegopodium podagraria<\/em>), common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale<\/em>), sickle Medick (Medicago falcata<\/em>) and others outcompete the more desirable, slow-growing urban meadow plants such as cowslip (Primula veris<\/em>), meadow Buttercup (Ranunculus acris<\/em>), germander Speedwell (Veronica chamaedrys<\/em>) and yellow rattle (Rhinanthus sp.<\/em>). Without early mowing, the urban meadows would be overtaken by grasses by Midsummer, while the sown plants would be stressed and weakened. Observe how quickly the meadows regrow after the first mowing – usually, the meadow is blooming and lush again after just a month. However, early mowing is not necessary in open sunny areas with poor soil fertility, where vegetation does not develop as quickly. Such urban meadow areas are left unmown until most plants have finished blooming.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
