[quote=Anonymous]Just plan for the expense, if you don't have the time. Only zoysia (sp?) grass turns brown in winter, but it's great because it requires very little water. No need to mow grass here from Dec to Mar. Definitely get the ivy off the trees, it's a good way to kill them, which will cost you money (see the other thread about tree maintenance and costs). Most yards in my neighborhood, are about $50/mowing (and that's small or large, since it's the cost of getting them out). You'll also need to mulch, leaf cleaning (which a big yard can be a pita, and up to $700-$1500 to outsource), shrub pruning, and tree maintenance (though not annually). Be sure that you it's worth the time and/or money to you. [/quote]
