Al, you have some truly lush-looking turf, but where are all the trees and shrubs? We plant fescue and forget it (no water, no fert, no herbicide, no insecticide), mowing about 12 acres of it at 3" whenever it really needs it or when we are hosting a tour. For us, turf is just a utilitarian soil carpet, providing foreground and access for the more important plants and facilitating the control of brush encroachment. Of course, we don't have kids or grandkids needing turf play areas.
