🌿 Reduced Mowing: Rethinking Lawn Care 🦋

Did you know that mowing less can boost biodiversity? Here’s why:
🌼 Frequent mowing reduces plant variety
It favors grasses and low-growing plants, decreasing the presence of species like daisies, bellflowers, and cornflowers.
🐞 Less plant diversity = fewer beneficial insects
This impacts pollination, pest control, and organic matter decomposition.
📏 Height matters
A taller lawn (around 20 cm) is more resilient to drought, pests, and weeds.
📅 The right rhythm
2-3 mows per year, after flowering, help maintain a healthy balance.
Rethinking urban green space management isn’t just about aesthetics – it’s about the health of our ecosystem! 🌍💚
