A moss lawn can be an alternative solution for shady spots in the garden where grass has no chance to grow and thrive. — dpa

There's something comforting about a sprawling green lawn that is clearly nurtured and cared for. “Many lawn owners enjoy the greenery in their garden, which is soothing to the eyes, ” says Harald Nonn, chairman of the German Lawn Society.

“At the same time, for them the lawn is also an extension of their living room, which can be used for many activities – or just for relaxing, ” adds Nonn. But as beautiful as these lawns can be, a lot of upkeep must be done to keep them that way.
