Not trying to be mean, but this looks like crap compared to a cleanly cut lawn. Just my opinion and you’re free to maintain your property as you like. Unless you have an HOA, which mine would go ape shite if I had that in my front yard.

Here’s the thing, and I think someone mentioned it, to get that look in Louisiana is essentially like having a lawn. You have to tend to that and keep the natural absolute shite from growing. You don’t see Lucius wildflowers growing along highways down here, do you? No, all dallis grass and chadrons. That’s our climate.

To each his own, baw! I like the look of a well manicured lawn. While I do use fertilizer and herbicides, it's far from "soaking my yard". Once you get on top of weeds, the occasional spot spray is all that's required to keep your lawn looking 100.

It's all about personal taste. I think a yard chock full of weeds looks horrible....especially, this time of year. The grass isn't growing much, but the weeds are thriving.

You don't see much of that anywhere anymore. Everything is mowed and/or sprayed constantly giving nothing time to grow to bloom or seed production. The only thing that can survive that are actual weeds.
