Not my lawn. I’ve been selectively breeding my yard to only have highly drought tolerant native plants. My neighbor brags about his st Augustine monoculture and the $400 a month water bill to keep it alive, but always asks me what my secret is because I literally never water, fertilize, or poison it (besides with specific poison for invasive fire ants).
Although I am planning on seeding clover this year, largely because I plan on urban farming in my backyard, but I won’t complain about the nitrogen fixing in the front either.

Your lawn sounds far more interesting than his. I hate the cookie cutter, artificially green lawns.
I think it looks better, but I’m an outdoorsman at heart so I prefer nature.
What do you use against fire ants?
