Florida sometimes promotes xeriscaping.

My step-father did have a well installed for the lone purpose of maintaining the lawn.
It is also a backup supply if the municipal system becomes unavailable.
Also, I do find it odd to water plants with water treated with chlorine and fluoride.
- cmpb 5y agoXeriscaping is fortunately starting to grow in popularity, but the majority of people I discuss it with are still surprised (and often insulted) at the idea of not having and maintaining the traditional grass monoculture.
- _hyn3 5y ago> Also, I do find it odd to water plants with water treated with chlorine and fluoride. I just researched sugar water for fresh cut flowers. The article actually suggested what seemed to be a substantial amount of chlorine bleach (I think a half-teaspoon per liter) to reduce bacteria and mold, so there are some positive aspects to strong oxidants. (.. and at least the plants will have strong teeth and bones.)
