chuckles in deep south
If I let it grow, my yard would look like a jungle within a few years…
Hell, there’s grass and stuff growing in the little narrow spot between my house and garage that is well over waist high now because my riding mower won’t fit there, and my push mower is dead and buried.
Oh, and one of my trimmers won’t start, and the battery powered one has a broken clutch and won’t spin the head.
And any money I could’ve spent to fix either has been going to the daughter who graduated high school last Tuesday.
That bit of growth happened in less than a month by the way. I used that battery trimmer there about a month ago and was on the process of using it around the rest of the house when it just … stopped. I haven’t had the time or inclination to take it apart yet. The gas one? The pull start won’t even turn the engine, just freewheels. That’s what I get for letting some kid “work on it” to replace a fuel line… When he put it back together it never worked again.
Sigh.

I have a beautiful grass and clover lawn in MN. It hasn’t been much harder to get growing than typical grass. Xeriscaping isn’t typically what it’s called here the midwest

Where do you get clover seed? I can’t find it locally.

My local garden shop has it.
But if you are ordering online I use Flawn. They also do other bee lawns and other plants. I had used their English daisy and Self-heal with some success. It takes some time to flower so hard to tell if my sowing are slow bloomers or didn’t germinate.
