Your lawn.

[RCMerchant]

Unless you live in an apartment- well you know.

Some folks have to make their lawn perfect.
I Never rake leaves. After the winter you mow over them, and it's good mulch.
I don't mow as much as the neighbors. It's not like Grey Gardens s**t. But I got moss on my roof and vines growing up the shed.
But I mow the lawn! And I never mow over cool looking plants or weeds.
Oh yeah. I got a tree down way out back. My  grandson Aiden and his friend picked up all the sticks in the yard and stacked them out back.
But I got a wire cage for roses! And they grow all along the west side of the house.  
Some field corn stalks pop up on occasion, just because I live in Southwest Michigan.

I got fed up trying to sort my garden so I am paying someone else to fix it for me this year. It is my least favourite job to do around the house.

I got flowers around my house. I figure-"hey! Flowers and weeds have been neighbors forever! Before mankind! Who am I to f**k that up?"

(Tell that to the wifey when she tells you to trim the weeds.   It don't work. )

I live in a condo precisely so I will never have to take care of the lawn. I have no interest in lawns or landscaping. When I was a kid I was forced to mow the family lawn despite allergies that made the job extra-miserable for me, and I swore I'd never have one of my own.

Out back I got a old phone pole with a light on top, and a switch box on the side. I have this old broke down metal windmill kind of thing, which I lean against the light pole. And I can prop a radio on it!

With all the renovating going on where I live, part of my garden flat was knocked down and my garden went with it.

Been eleven years....
Not sure where to start....

I tried letting the privets take over once, then it took a couple seasons to rip 'em out...
I tried growing flowers a few times, & gave up on that.....
I keep trying to grow fennel & cabbages for the caterpillars....
I've got so dang many of these Budleja Davidi butterfly bushes, that I've run out of room...

I dunno, I wanted a little grove with some privacy & shade....
Some folks think a lawn should look like a golf course.....

[RCMerchant]

 ^ I agree on folks who try to make their yard look like a golf course. I prefer it to look like...ya know, outside. With birds and critters and weeds.
I mow the lawn. I pick up sticks because I'm surrounded by big trees.
I got wild flowers all over, and I don't run them over.

[Alex]

I want my lawn to look like someone else did all the work.

I live in a condo but we do have a lawn. Per rules everyone should take turns mowing the lawn but I never did, was never told that it was my turn. Never seen any of my condo neighbors mow either so I have no clue who actually cuts the grass.

The lawn is pretty much useless as it is located on the sunny side of the building. There's no natural shade from the stinging sun in summer, that's the reason why people from our building rarely use the lawn for grilling, gatherings or whatever. A canopy would be a must unless you don't mind frying alive in the sun.

I was like that for a number of years.
Neighbors used to get after me, which only made me less inclined to work on it....
Probably my biggest mistake that first year, was thinking I could handle all this with a reel mower....

Since my stepdad passed, I've been trying to get his riding mower...
His son doesn't want it & my mom has a neighbor cut it, but she seems to think I won't use it....

[RCMerchant]

Once Tiana was using the push mower to trim where the riding mower can't cut. She parked it in the yard to get some ice tea. She came out- it was gone! I went to the neighbors, and the Ma came out blithering that her brain dead foster son, who was as big as a boulder and about as smart as one, had a problem. I told this dumb b***h to keep her kid out off my yard or I'll make that brat have a real problem.

I don't mow the lawn anymore, but I used to and the whole front lawn on a corner is the curve of a hill.    
That was good exercise. 
I have oak trees growing on my lot and across the road is about six acres of ungradeable oak forest, a brook is down there which goes out into the Shark River Inlet.  I have seen wild turkeys, deer, foxes. 

[LilCerberus]

I get a lot of cardinals...
I had several bird feeders set up, & was getting finches & chickadees & everything, but I haven't been able to afford bird seed this year...
