With the gradual development of social economy, people are paying more andmore attention to greening and environmental protection. Greening is theembodiment of people's comfortable life. At this stage, green lawns haveappeared in entertainment and leisure venues, road green belts, hotel greening,sports venues, etc. One of the most common ways for people to change theenvironment is to lay lawns to cover the exposed areas, in order to achieve thepurpose of greening quickly. Therefore, green lawns also derive from naturallawns and artificial lawns. So what is the difference between these two typesof lawn?

First of all, natural lawns are divided into winter grasses andwarm-season grasses. Different grass seeds have different sensitivities to winddirection, light and air humidity. Environmental influences can hinder thegrowth of grass seeds. Secondly, athletes will inevitably fall duringcompetitions and training. The turf will also be damaged to varying degrees.Therefore, in addition to daily care, the golf course will also have to replacethe turf when the season or the extent of damage requires it.

Furthermore, natural lawns have poor weather resistance and need to beprovided with a more comfortable space and regular watering. Natural lawnsrequire high maintenance. The maintenance plan is broken down into monthly andannual ones, and the cost is slightly higher. The project is large, takes along time, and the competition and use conditions are limited. Natural grassoften needs to be transplanted, cultivated, pruned, and maintained withoutbeing trampled, which requires a lot of manpower and financial resources.Natural grass has a very limited ability to maintain its original color, andthe influence of various factors can directly destroy its color. However,natural lawn is the most common method of greening the environment. It can notonly beautify the environment, but also purify the air and improve theecological environment. This is also a natural advantage unique to naturallawns. In urban greening and park beautification, natural lawn is the firstchoice. However, it is far from enough to popularize urban greening withnatural grass, and it has not reached the stage of popularization eithereconomically or in terms of use.

Artificial turf makes up for the shortcomings ofnatural grass and overcomes the problem that natural grass can’t grow underextreme climate conditions. Because it has good wear resistance and elasticityand will not fade. Even if you step on it with high intensity, there will be noproblems such as deformation and fading. Artificial grass also has a relativelylong service life and can be used all day long. The use of artificial turf cangreatly reduce high maintenance costs and has the characteristics of highfrequency of use, easy paving, simple maintenance and fast drainage. If thereis dust and dirt, just rinse it with clean water. It is not easy to fade and deform,and its shock absorption, elasticity and flame retardant properties are alsorelatively in place. Artificial grass is suitable for campuses, kindergartens,competition venues, and training venues, especially football stadiums.

Artificial turf looks just like real grass. At present, there arerelatively many artificial turfs replacing natural turfs. Because it alreadyhas a beautifying effect, it can also be recycled and reused, and it also comesin different specifications and varieties. You can choose the grass height anddensity according to your needs.

Compared with natural grass, artificial grass is more convenient andsimpler to maintain. It is a long-lasting and low-cost alternative to naturalgrass. At present, its application in various aspects is becoming more and moreextensive.
