Another battle in our War on Lawn.
The battle engaged ...
These two images above show two views of the opening salvo. The strip between the existing mini-meadow and the driveway is being converted from lawn to garden. The turf removal is almost complete, and in the second image there are even a few sedum plants waiting to be put in the ground.
