When sowing a lawn in the garden, we first of all dream of beauty. For example, neatly trimmed trees, flowers and shrubs against the backdrop of green grass delight and soothe.
The lawn in the garden increases soil moisture and improves the microclimate. The soil is protected from water and wind erosion.
In winter, the lawn grass keeps snow in the root zone, the sod warms the roots, thereby protecting them from freezing. In summer, the grass protects the soil and roots from overheating. BUT……
Agronomists advise against "hiding" under the lawn the roots of trees younger than four years old. It is difficult for young trees to withstand competition with grasses for moisture and nutrition. Having matured, "having run the roots" into deeper layers of the soil, trees no longer react painfully to the proximity of grass.
