    Rake leaves onto the pathway because the handicap get all the cool parking spaces.

  Not a native English speaker here, that’s an amazing name for, uh, certain kinds of caterpillars?

  But the leaves cover the grass, choking it out and killing it due to lack of sunlight

  • finderscult@lemmy.ml ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Grass will grow again in the spring, it’s root system is fine for several months without sunlight… Assuming you have a local grass yard. Your yard is full of multiple species of local grasses and not just a desert of st Augustine right?

      Correct, super diverse garden

    Heck the grass it serves no purpose and is the worst monoculture we have

      Don’t its roots slightly help with soil slippage?

    Kill the grass and replace it with clover

    • ryannathans@aussie.zone ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Already is half clover

    Grass like that is not much better than concrete anyway. Let nature do it’s thing! ✨

    The grass is tough as fuck and doesn’t need us saving their asses

    good things lawns don’t have to just be grass, over here lawns have at least like 5-6 species in them and as a result the only thing that makes it look bad is mowing too much.

    like i’ve seen people talk about how mossy lawns will dry out and die but it’s just bog standard to have mossy lawns with 0 shade around here, the diversity in the soil makes everything more robust.

      Do you have any pictures? There’s probably half a dozen different species at least in my lawn

      Australian lawns seem to be nothing like US lawns

  Kimberly trying to feel good about leaving a mess around her yard

  • JasonDJ@lemmy.zip ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I leave the leaves and pine needles in my backyard because it beats having a giant dirt patch.

    I don’t really want grass back there, but what else is comfortable to walk barefoot on and can hold up to large dogs, growing kids, and a small flock of miniature dinosaurs running allover it every day?

    And I’ve spent an obscene amount of money on grass seed the past couple of years only to be told that I can’t water it, between droughts and water bans from the city trying to balance water between the high-PFAS reservoir and the low-PFAS resevoir. Ugh. Can’t win even if I try.

      Try white dutch clover. It’s walkable like grass once set it. Worth a try at least. It’s been working well in our yard

  Is this missing a panel or am I having a stroke?

    In the 3rd panel read all the bugs then all the humans.

      But that isn’t how comics are read, but it does make sense.
