Lawns


If the "Buffalo grass" mentioned by Jerry is the same one we
know, half of Perth is carpeted with it (the remainder is Kikuyu
or various lawn mixtures). Largely due to the pre-occupation
with lawns and the amount of water poured onto them, we have had
fixed-sprinkler restrictions for several years and they look
like remaining. Ground covers are gaining in popularity and I
have just had a variety installed; we shall see how they do. The
only lawn at my place is on the road verge, and this is
difficult to avoid.

BTW, Tristan, dunno about Clematis not being a Medit plant; there are
two native varieties here and you couldn't get much more Mediterranean.
