I have eliminated all my grass. Me and the lawn mower never did get along. Sometimes I do miss that little patch of green I used to have in the middle of the front and back gardens, but not enough to go back to mowing. I've heard that artificial turf is really good looking now and hard to tell from the real thing, but I keep thinking that it would look funny in the winter. Maybe I would have to buy two pieces, one green for the summer and one brown for the winter and just switch them with the season, but then I'd have to give up some of my plants and I don't think I can do that. I have maybe 100 cultivers of daylilies. Too many really for the space I have. I will have to get rid of some of the more boring ones as the other newer ones get bigger. Dori, I look at your gardens and keep thinking that is the look I want, but feel like I sure have a long ways to go to get there.
