Who says you need to have grass to have a lawn? An increasing number of homeowners are opting to install a lawn-free yard that’s easy to maintain and can cut the water bill down considerably.
A lawn-free yard can be built using everything from pea gravel to pavers and flagstones. This doesn’t mean it has to be devoid of any green. Indeed, you can incorporate moss and other types of ground cover that green up the space without the need to pull out the mower.
Another creative option is to use patterned rectangular stones. These can be arranged or installed in a semi-chaotic pattern to create a distinctive look. When coupled with red gravel or sand, this creates a fun and eclectic patio area.
Finally, you can create a fabulous looking yard by incorporating native grasses and plants, then allowing them to “grow wild.” This creates a landscape that is natural and easy to maintain. Coupled with a walkway, it’ll become the perfect place to relax.
