Abstract
The analysis of the literature data on various areas of development of lawn science in foreign and domestic science is given and the general principles of the formation of model grass mixtures for growing lawns of high quality are considered. In the course of long-term studies of the characteristics of sod-forming cereals, grass mixtures for decorative and sports lawns and turf coverings of special significance were modeled. A set of norms and rules for the compilation of model grass mixtures, taking into account the ecological and biological characteristics of the plant species included in them, measures to create lawn coverings and maintain a stable grass stand in a specific georgafic area - is the scientific basis of lawn science.
