    Just stop applying herbicides to your lawn and enjoy the spring wildflowers before your first mow of the summer. It’s addicting and soon you’ll start letting the sides grow up natural and all the birds, bees, and butterflies move in and you’ll want lawn less and less.

      I do a no mow May. As in I don’t mow until May and we got lots of daisies and geraniums. And then I leave a wild chunk of my lawn which has encouraged the dragon flies.
