monoculture-schmonoculture!


This is the lawn in a nearby park.

I wasn't comfortable photographing anyone's personal lawn, but this is in no way an atypical lawn here. If you click through to the larger version, it becomes even more apparent how many flowers are there... in the smaller version, what looks like discolored patches of lawn are actually denser flower coverage.

That is nice. I have to admit that I quite like dandelions, even though they're supposed to get pulled.

Yes, but.... why are they supposed to get pulled? Is it because they do that standard life cycle thing of trying to make more dandelions?

I'm quite partial to the little white and pinkish daisy looking things, myself.
