I appreciate that the competition is a tongue-in-cheek awareness stunt, but mate, if it doesn't look like the (metaphorically) plastic monoculture grassscape that lawn enthusiasts make, it's far from the world's ugliest. I've seen people in the US dyeing their lawns green with a gurney. If it can't attract butterflies and other bugs, it's an ugly lawn!

Good video on lawns - plenty of its content applies to Aus as well: https://youtube.com/watch?v=KLYMjPNppRQ

Good. As an aside long grass always reminds me of this scene Don't Forget To Mow You Lawns Will You
