Meadow flowers for residents of megacities would long ago have become exotic if landscaped meadow lawns had not been specially created in city parks and squares. They are gaining popularity due to their natural beauty and creating the illusion of a corner wildlife.

To organize such a lawn, two things are required - a sufficiently large land area and meadow flowers and herbs. Today, grass seeds for every taste and color can be bought in specialized stores.

Meadow at arm's length

To the owners of personal plots with large quantity free land, the question often arises: what kind of design landscape to create near the house? The famous look of the English lawn has firmly entered the life of modern people, but many owners of plots are beginning to give preference to the meadow type of grass grass lawn. It is called Moorish, and it is based on forbs and meadow flowers, from which you can create compositions or sown with a solid carpet. Such a domesticated meadow looks very impressive and benefits the surrounding ecosystem, as it attracts bees and butterflies.

Perennial grasses for meadow lawn

In order for the meadow under the window to please for many years, it is necessary to determine in advance what types of perennial grasses will grow on it.

The most popular and easiest to care for are:


These plants are used to create a natural corner of nature instead of a boring green lawn.

Types of meadow flowers

Perennial meadow flowers are increasingly becoming guests in home gardens. They are planted both to create a meadow lawn, and simply to decorate the yard in the form of a multi-colored rabatka.

For regions with cold winters, frost-resistant perennials are more suitable, since other species should be dug up and stored until spring. In a temperate and warm climate, you can not worry about the plants and immediately make up from them when planting beautiful compositions and landscapes.

What are the most commonly planted meadow flowers?

Meadow flowers can be planted in a certain pattern on the lawn so that they bloom in sequence, and thus the home lawn will delight in its blooming view all summer.

Preparing the soil for a meadow lawn

Organizing a piece of wildlife near the house requires more attention and money than an ordinary lawn. This is due to the destruction of weeds, which gradually disappear with frequent mowing of the English lawn.

Mowing the meadow is carried out depending on the plants that fill it. If there are no bulbous representatives among them, then it is enough to mow once at the end of June and the second time at the end of August. In the presence of bulbous plants, a haircut is carried out once every 2 weeks.

To remove weeds, treat the area with glyphosate, then dig or uproot as they appear.

Planting meadow grasses and flowers

Some nature lovers prefer to create lawns that are as close to natural as possible. To get a natural meadow, it is enough to sow seed collections into the prepared soil meadow grasses and flowers.

These mixtures include the seeds of the most popular and unpretentious perennial plants - chamomile, poppies, dandelions, calendula, tobacco and many others.

Gardeners who prefer harmonious order in their meadow sow it lawn grass or oregano and alfalfa, and landscapes, paintings and labyrinths are created from meadow flowers. This process is somewhat more complicated, but the result will please for many years, especially when the flowers bloom in turn, creating the illusion of constant spring.

Meadow lawn care

The concept of care includes regular watering as the soil dries. Since most often a sunny place is chosen for the meadow, it is preferable to use herbs and flowers that are resistant to drought and sunlight. Haircut is carried out 1-2 times per season.

Fertilizers are applied together with watering 1 time in 3-4 weeks. If flowers are grown for cutting, then fertilize once every 2 weeks.

It is also necessary to check the site for weeds and ruthlessly destroy them. This is the main care for the home meadow.

Wildflowers
At the beginning of July it is good to go to summer hike on the hills along the banks of the river and take a photo of wild flowers


The Dubna River in these parts has incredibly beautiful hilly banks.

On the river surface, yellow capsules doze.

On the left bank of the Dubna River, a spruce forest is like an enchanted castle.

We must somehow cross over to the opposite bank of the Dubna River.

Here's a great place. A strong current and stones protruding from the water indicate the place of the ford.

We put the belongings in a hermetic bag.

We put on neoprene socks so as not to injure our feet on the stones, and wander down the Dubna River, looking for a flat place on the opposite bank.

We get out on the beach. A 2-meter wall is an evil stinging nettle.

There is nowhere to go. I'm going straight.

Thickets like in the jungle. So to speak, modest.

And when they got out into the open, how good! The river Dubna writes out bends.

Waist-deep, and where shoulder-deep we go through tall grass floodplain meadows to the village of Vaulino.

In the depths of my soul, some kind of peasant gene yearns: how many cows could be pastured, how much hay could be prepared.

And the places around are beautiful, marvelously beautiful. Maybe, . Clouds rise above the hills like snow-white mountains.

I climbed up the hill, turned back to look at the valley of the Dubna River. Here they are, meadows, wild flowers.

Other wildflowers include oregano or forest mint. She has a special, perfumed smell.

Another masterpiece of wildflowers. In the center are pink marshmallow flowers.

Among the white clover, the lilac-blue petals of the forest geranium look exquisite.

And you, brother poppy, how did you get into this company of Central Russian wildflowers?

On the village street of Vaulino, for some reason, a hiker was mistaken for a wealthy Esquire landowner. The foreman of the construction brigade of Armenians, Dima, began to persuade them to build a house.

Firewood lies. In winter, heat the house and bath.

On the western border of the village of Vaulino there is a large reservoir.

Here, the Dmitriyevites packed their things in hermetic bags and sailed to the other side. Daredevils!

And land tourists went on foot to Trekhselishche.

We go and admire the wildflowers.

Luxurious bouquet of wild flowers. Only it does not stand in a vase, but grows in the field.

Interesting varieties of cornflowers.

Cornflower meadow.

Three-veined cornflower.

In these wild flowers, yellow candles of black mullein attract attention.

The yellow and white tongues of sweet clover blaze in the wind.

Angelica forest opened white umbrellas.

I'm going down the road. Cars with summer residents are rushing past. Catching up with an old Ford truck loaded with boards. The driver appears to be a farmer.
- Are you going far? Get in, I'll take you!
Thanks, a kind person. But I have to walk.

Views from the hills all around. Dali. Like flying in an airplane.

From Trekhselishchi we are on our way to Small Oak forests.

The name justifies itself, oaks grow around.

Here among the wildflowers is a precious find, a blooming wild rose.

From Small Oakwoods we go along the forest road to the final point of our summer hike - to the village of Zapolskoe.

Thicket, even the GPS signal was lost.

In the twilight of the forest, a young fireweed plays with the sun in bunnies.

In Zapolsky, locals sell mushrooms and chanterelles.

The rain began to fall. Young entrepreneurial guys rushed to cover the furniture they made and put up for sale.

And here are the tourists-Dmitrievtsy appeared. Merry-cheerful.

Only the four-legged tourist was very tired. He came to a stop and collapsed on the asphalt. The fact that the dog is alive is evidenced by the rising and falling belly to the beat of breathing.

Sergiev Posad met us with a bright and festive atmosphere. It celebrates the 700th anniversary of St. Sergius of Radonezh.
