Some people believe that our society's fixation with lawns causes
considerable environmental problems including water depletion,
pesticide and herbicide pollution, habitat degradation, and threats to
biodiversity. The National Lawn Conversiion Program
http://www.conservationinstitute.org/lawnconversion.htm advocates
pulling out your grass and replacing it with native plants. Once it's
done, you save time in maintaining your garden (for us lazy folks),
save on chemicals, water and machines (plus gas) to keep on mowing
lawns.

For more info on lawn conversions and examples of converted lawns,
visit the Ergonica World of Weeds website weeding tips page.

What does having an expensive lawn really mean?

Look fake, poisonous and manufactured by Chem-Lawn. Gimme clovers,
dandelions, mole trails, grub damage and moss any day.

His house is probably the same too!
Ah, listen! The call of the guy that's too lazy to take care of his
lawn..!
