I have in the far past lived near citys that your landscaping was a
major part of the citys codes, in otherwords, if you din't have a
good lawn with some flower beds you faced a fine from the city. I ran
a lawn service and servered many of those lawns. Ofcourse for flower
beds I'd build a line of rose bushs along some hidden watering lines.
I kow of one guy who's lawn I just once a week took a water hose and
washed it off, it was all astroturf and the city didn't like it but
could't do anything about it.

believe that they may yet be brothers of man, who even now fight to
survive, somewhere beyond the heavens.

So don't have one. Voila!

They'd like my scythe-cut acre, which gets cut over a series of
several days, a couple of 10' wide swaths a day as the mood to go
outside and do a little cutting strikes.

The average height of the lawn is then determined by how fast it grows
; you simply cut a little every day and nature takes care of it.

I think it looks better than mower-cut lawns, but it's a hugely
different style.



I put my draft horse out on mine and let him eat away. Later I finish up
with a pair of mini horses for detail work. Oh, sure, I can mower cut it
all in an hour or so but the horses fertilize, too.
