Thanks for the shares!
I do recall the clover lawn looking a bit patchy like yours, with some grass and whatever else mixing amongst the clover. I suppose that was partly what annoyed the later caretaker, as there's something of a tradition in American suburbia (or suburban hell) to have flat, featureless, green lawns, something which might go back to traditional 'English turf,' I suppose.
I don't understand folks who would be annoyed with this type of thing. It's like art right in my yard when the wind blows.
uniforimity is SO boring
english turf, fuckin vomit lol
Step by step we've re-engineered the world in to forms that are 'safe' and 'comfortable,' and along the way forgotten who we essentially are... altho that's a long story. :S
