Hi,
I was just talking to a local Landscaper and he said that seed for Lawn that take less water are all invasive varieties that many states don't encourage. I sure wouldn't want to plant grasses like that. Yes they might not need as much water but when they take over whole states and everyone is putting poison on their lawns to try and get rid of them and they don't work, all it does is pollute our water sources. That doesn't seem like a very good way of being good stewards of the Earth to me. Don't mean to be polictial but it is a real concern for me.
