How true. As long as my "lawn" is geen, I don't care what grows
in it. I mow once a week, let the clipping fall where they may
(that's my fertilizer) and the bare spots soon turn to grass over
a few years. Worms help, even if they do make a bumpy lawn.

I think, unless you live in one of those ritzy neighborhoods with
covenents that tell you to get rid of those, and that, whatever,
you can have a green area. Though it would be smarter to have a
natural lawn, whatever grew there before the humans took over.

Stinken pesticides have killed off more natuaral areas where man
has decided to take over with his extreme values that all nature
has to kowtow to his liking.
