Since lawns are bad for the environment, what do you think lawns should be replaced with?

Optional poll if you want, since this place doesn’t have polls,

I might add some of the suggestions

    Well, any combination of species that are native to your area -slash- noninvasive and you find pretty or produce fruits that you enjoy or flowers that the local bees might enjoy.

    It’s going to depend on your biome a lot. A pond is nice too, introduce a couple frogs and some fish, filter the water, plant some citronnelle around and you shouldn’t have to worry about mosquitoes…

      Best answerof the thread. Depends where you live and what is natural to your area. Southwest is going to be rocks and draught tolerant foliage. PNW is going to be mossy and ferns. Midwest a lot of natural grasses. Not sure about Louisiana or the south but I assume just keep a swamp back there. In all cases friendly flora is a good start
