Voting Booth: How do you keep a lawn?, 1 by sunkissed

No grass in the backyard, just flower beds and stone pathways, a lot like meezersfive\'s, but mine isn\'t that pretty, it\'s very eclectic landscaped. The front has some grass around and between the flower beds, just Bahia, nothing fancy, no fertilizer. We also leave the leaf and grass clippings as mulch and that seems to keep the weeds away. I take care of the flower beds and husband mows and edge-trims.
