[quote=Anonymous]OP you don't have to pull out all your grass to have a more environmentally friendly lawn. We had a very small lot at our old house. We put in ground covers around the trees and curved it around some other parts of the yard, leaving a small central area of lawn. DH bought a push mower (no motor) at a hardware store, and cut the lawn in about 10 minutes once a week. The ground cover (can't remember the name, pachysandra?) looked great and stayed put as long as the grass was mowed regularly. No pesticides or fertilizers required. I'm sure you can find a good ground cover/s that will suit the shade/sun conditions in your yard. Just keep a bit of grass (for the neighbors!) and cover the rest with no-care groundcover. Easy-peazy.[/quote]
