The yellow and white clover, along with the odd wild daisy, are blooming in my yard! So no mowing for another week or two.
I can sit in Grandma’s Hootch and drink tea while looking at pretty flowers and the lake. It reminds me of a little mountain valley.
All the while knowing that in 10 or twelve weeks it will all be covered in snow again.
You say requires little care and you’re mowing it twice as often.
I just mow every 2 weeks from middle of May to Sept. and that’s only because the city would complain that it’s too long.
I have June grass seeded into the mix. During the month of June it grows fast. And since I live on a hillside, June is often the wettest month and I need that fast growth to hold the soil and prevent heavy washing. As June passes I need to mow less and less. This year I have only needed to mow twice so far, and I will need to mow less and less as summer moves into the dry part of the year and the grasses will go dormant.
