Putting green lawns are boring.

So... there's now a trend, at least in the city... of people putting out astroturf or.... even cheaper... forms of fake grass. like. EWW.

At least they aren't mowing the grass weekly? It's something, though I'm not sure if that's a net positive in the end.

Sure, if you care about propagating the local fauna in an urban area you have many beautiful visitors. Rats and the native insects on their back. The feral street cat is next to populate this urban green space, oh and lets not forget the cockroach. Native to all densely populated towns, they can be placed on full display for the urbanites to appreciate the aesthetic that their host provides.
