Losing the fight against some stupid broadleaf in the front yard lawn. MIL reckons I need to weed and feed it but a weekend 7 days after a mow but 7 days before the next mow with no rain is a bit much to ask for at the moment.

When I moved in the back yard was a dump. but what little kikuyu was there went nuts and within 2 years with basically no effort the kikuyu won and it now looks fantastic. Thinking I should just start transplant runners in the front yard and let it do its thing. Might take a few years but if it ends up half as good as the back yard I wont be complaining.

I'm amazed that people know the difference between grasses. Me - grass bad. Going back inside ๐Ÿคง Even fake grass wants to kill me.

to be honest I thought it was a VERY different name. I only really remember cause my parents would encourage us to steal runners from our neighbors lawn that were coming through the fence to help it spread into hours.

Agreed with CEO grass is evil. How about some nice chamomile or stepable mint?

I've lost my voice. And I'm running an event that requires me to basically talk all weekend. This'll be interesting.
