I like to mix mowed and unmowed parts of my garden.
It keeps the biodiversity but does not look abandoned.
Something like that :
And yet, somehow, someone in your HOA will find a way to say "it looks abandoned" despite the clearly well-cared-for pathways.
You're forgiven. When I was young, I genuinely thought "fiscally conservative" was a logical position until all the would-be fascists starting going mask-off.
I'm a fiscal conservative. I think the government should guarantee free healthcare for all in order to reduce federal healthcare expenses. And the government should give everyone who needs it free housing, because otherwise unemployment and disability pay for tenants is just going to be funding landlords on our tax dollar. And it's definitely not fiscally responsible to let the bourgeois own the means of production and exploit the workers, so we should seize them to save money.
Wow, I love conserving human rights.
If we're going to define it like that then hell ya I'm conservative as fuck
Given the image was uploaded to a .fr domain it might not be super accurate to assume they’re in the USA. Fun fact: there are almost 200 countries that aren’t the USA!
They do it at a local park now. There weren't even any signs explaining why, I just saw it and knew. Felt great.
To take it one step further, one can plant (native) wildflower seeds that further promotes biodiversity and attracts pollinators. Plus meadows are beautiful.
This is what I do. Edges under 'edges don't get mown, and I do sweeping corners (because who stands in the corner of the lawn?).
The best bit is, the wild sections are no more than 1m deep, so I can still lean in to remove non-native plants.
Did you take this picture in my backyard?
If this is your backyard you have a very nice backyard !
Thanks! It's really similar to that, except it leads into a pine forest, not a deciduous one. I didn't notice that until looking at it again. We moved an hour away from the city last year, and haven't regretted it one bit. I thought we'd miss the easy access to city amenities, but we're pretty self-sustaining out here, and it hasn't been an issue.
