I have a large, flat and open backyard. I think I've planted well over 200 native grasses and herbaceous perennials. Yet I still have too much lawn, getting a lot of volunteers coming up to transplant. My whole yard is buzzing with pollinators from spring through fall, I love it.

I am in year four, it is a process.

Peace
