You will use no water, ever, anywhere, not even to drink, and you will be happy.

Not enough rusted out car bodies and ten foot tall weeds to even be worst yard in my home town.

Some of us who have green lawns don’t water them either.

The burrow holes are caused by bandicoots (aka bilby).

“Hollywood actress and environmentalist Shailene Woodley, who called the contest “an excellent way to influence people to use less water.”

Is there anything Hollywood actresses do not know?
No wonder Aaron Rogers dumped this crazy beotch.

There is no shortage of water in 90% of the world. I have a brook across from my house right now that is running at flood stage because all the snow melted when it rained.
My well has never been close to running dry and it is only 130’ deep.
The water supplier for the city of Nashua, NH dumps millions of gallons a day of fresh water into the Merrimack River.

People need to stop living in the desert.

Within very broad limits, I’m ok with people naturalizing their lawns. Native grasses and shrubs are fine. And I won’t quarrel with zero upkeep. I’ve never lived in a desert, but if I moved to the arid parts of the west today, I don’t think I’d worry too much about maintaining a manicured patch of green.

That looks like my lawn during the summer.

Unfortunately, with the recent rains, it has turned all green again. And it has to be mowed.

My ultimate goal is to landscape it so that only drought tolerant plants are present. So that I can keep not watering during the summer.

Ive never understood the fascination with grass especially among those that live in a desert.

A crop we cant use that we grow for the purpose of wasting our time and money.

It doesnt make a whole lot of sense anywhere really.

“Hey, man!”
“Yeah?”
“I saw your lawn the other day!”
“Yeah?”
“Man, it’s ugleeeeeeee!”
“Yeah, it’s ugly, but it sure saves me water!”

Apologies to Jimmy Soul.
