[–] wbrianwhite@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 months ago (3 children) When's the last time you sat or laid in your lawn? I lie in my clover yard frequently with my dog. Way less poky than grass. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children) My definition of lawn includes clover I just don’t want it to be a monoculture. Some of the no lawns people are adamant about not having grass at all and plant thyme and other plants that handle a bit of abuse but not dogs playing ball. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Madzielle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago* There are native grasses too. My clover mix that I made, which i finished off this year so I dont remember what it was, was just a blended native grass and dutch clover. Ive hella violets too that just grow. And, its fun, I realized ive three types of clover in my yard, the white, the purple, and a native yellow! permalink fedilink source parent [–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 months ago Same here, about 2/3 of our lawn has a fair bit of clover mixed in, though we have a few patches of pure grass that is also very soft (I’ve no idea what it is, came with the house). permalink fedilink source parent
