For my suburban lawn owning friends, which slowly but surely are growing in number…
Eco-lawn is a blend of fescue grasses which, according to its Canadian distributors, Wildflower Farm, grows about 4 times slower than your average lawn grass, which means one-fourth of the mowing for me and you.
…
But wait – there’s more! The Eco-lawn blend has a much longer root system than traditional grass; the roots reach over a foot into the soil to extract nutrients and water. The result? No need for watering or for expensive and toxic fertilizers.
…
unless you are really attached to your Eco-lawn sporting a closely-cropped buzz cut, you actually never have to mow it at all. The blades of grass are so fine that, once reaching a height of four inches, they will simply fold over on themselves, creating a lush “sea of grass” look.
