Abstract: | Alternative lawns designed with native species, such as buffalo grass, are a better choice for homeowners then conventional lawns. Conventional lawns require constant mowing and irrigation, cause water runoff pollution due to their consistent need of pesticides, and often contribute to invasive species problems. Alternative lawns can save homeowners money, are more sustainable and aesthetically pleasing. |
