I did. The neighbors lodged a complaint. They didn't buy my theory that the field of dandelions could be turned into wine.

- ses1984 3y agoIs that a homeowner’s association thing or a municipal thing? Either way, that sucks. I have some dandelions here and there but you only notice them for a very short while.
- mhandley 3y agoDandelions are pretty and seem to survive far better in my lawn than grass does. So dandelions it is. Can't imagine having neighbours that would complain.
- tharkun__ 3y agoOh that sucks. Luckily here the city even has flyers on how to have more natural lawns, which works naturally against grubs etc. We have lots of dandelions, especially close to the street. So do the neighbors though they are the religious once a week mowers. The trick I find is to let them be beautiful while it's mostly a sea of yellow and then mow as it turns into just ugly stalks with blown away seeds. And have a hedgerow so that you only need to mow the part between that and the street. I've also sown in clover on purpose. Something many will try to eradicate. Stays green much longer and better in summers when the grass just turns brownish. Some neighbors around us irrigate. I refuse to do that. Very sandy soil to begin with (there's sand pits around) and grass on top of the septic system just doesn't thrive in hot dry summers. So we either get clover green, white and red or brown. Their choice.
