Just found out about this law that went into effect in 2021 in MD. HOAs or communities cannot require turf-only landscapes.

This needs to be propagated. Grass can be fairly low maintenance compared to other gardening, but nobody should complain about alternatives. I enjoy some clover coverage.

Many many years ago I saw a home in NJ that was all sand with some rock formations. I always wondered how the maintenance was for that. I’d personally never do that, but thought it was interesting.
