This absolutely gorgeous. Lawns are a bit insane, IMHO. This promotes life, lawns do not. In order to meet the lawn standard, deadly chemicals have to be used and pollution from the engines and noise can upset a lovely day. No one lives there either. You have worked hard an achieved a thing of beauty.
