Prepare the ground as for a lawn: remove weeds including roots, loosen the soil to about 10 cm and level it. Mix the seed with fine sand for even distribution, broadcast it, firm lightly and water with a fine spray. Do not bury the seed deeply.
Water until emergence and weed as needed. Multi-year mixtures should be cut above 15 cm, once or twice a year after flowering, to encourage the plants to start again.
