Prato ELEGANZA by Prato Erboso Shop is a roll lawn produced with a mixture of perennial lolium and poa pratense.
Generally used for sports facilities and where there are no problems with water and excessive heat. It combines a particularly elegant appearance with decidedly good resistance to trampling. It resists the cold very well and the heat fairly well. Due to its excellent resistance to trampling, it is the most used species on football pitches. Less excellent is shade resistance as it is a lawn that prefers sunny exposures.
It lends itself to rather low cutting heights between 2.5 and 3.5 cm, but can tolerate heights of up to 1.5 cm for short periods. Cutting can be done with lawnmowers with helical or rotary blades.

It is necessary to lay the lawn within 24 hours of delivery to guarantee its integrity.
1. Tillage with removal of any residue of old lawn or weeds and large stones (small ones can also be left).
2. Preparation of the installation base by correcting the soil if it is excessively silty or sandy with the addition of silica or river sand or, alternatively, lapillus.
3. Accurate leveling to avoid harmful water stagnation. Keep the ground level 1-2 cm below the level of sidewalks or walkways in general.
4. Fertilization base with phosphorus-based fertilizer to stimulate the root development of the root ball.
5. Laying the lawn: carefully place the clods together, making the edges match (do not overlap). In very large plots, irrigate as you lay it to avoid dehydration of the lawn, especially in the summer season. Do not use small pieces of sod as they are quickly subject to dehydration.
6. Water abundantly as soon as the lawn is laid. Roll the ground to ensure that the carpet can adhere perfectly to the ground, thus eliminating air pockets that would prevent the turf from rooting. In the following days, make sure that the water supply always keeps both the root ball and the underlying soil very moist to help it root. It is advisable to water during the coolest hours of the day: early morning. After approximately 15-20 days after installation, depending on the period, you should no longer be able to lift the clods.
7. Gradually reduce irrigation, trying to accustom the turf to the lowest possible water supply depending on the soil, sun exposure and season.
8. First mowing of the lawn approximately 10 days after installation e always collection of the cut.
9. There are no seasonal limits for the installation of the lawn, but it is good practice, in case of installation at high temperatures, to prevent fungal attacks with specific products and never install in the presence of frozen ground.
10. Fertilizations: at least four basic annual fertilizations are recommended: early spring and late spring with ternary fertilizers with a prevalence of nitrogen content and early autumn and late autumn with ternary fertilizers with a prevalence of potassium content.
11. Fungicide treatment: it is recommended to carry out preventively, especially in the summer season.
