What alternatives are there to the classic, Australian lawn?
Synthetic? Elisabeth is not a fan, will Keith convince her that they have a place?
- Before considering an alternative, consider a few elements - amount of sun, foot traffic, water conditions etc
- Granitic sand - can be a great alternative for areas between plants, border beds or for paths.
- Mulch - Keith recommends 10mm pine bark
- Looking for a live lawn alternative?
- Herbaceous alternatives include: Creeping thyme, chamomile, prostate rosemary, round baby pigface, pennyroyal,
- Other plants that are suitable lawn alternatives - baby sunrose, zoysia tenuifolia, pratia pedunculata
- Native options include dichondra (either repens or silver falls variety) or native violets
- Consider establishing a Wildflower Meadow as we explored in an episode in October 2023 (listen now Apple Podcasts or Spotify)
- Stepping stones will help keep foot traffic down to reduce damage to your lawn alternative
