In many resorts I found although part of roof is used as lawn the plants are planted in pots

Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (23241) 28 Jan

In some resorts I found the entire terrace is not converted into lawn. Part of the terrace has grass. The rest part is full of pots. There are flowering plants or plants like cactus. As it is rooftop there is more light and...

Got a Lick of Work Done

Jim Bauer @porwest (112876) • United States 1 Aug

This cooldown has been a blessing in more ways than one. For one, it's a little respite from what's been ball busting heat. For two, between yesterday and today, I was able to get a lick of much needed work done. On Thursday, I...

Growing where it shouldn't

Judy Evans @JudyEv (382104) • Rockingham, Australia 30 Mar 25

We are house-sitting and there are lawns on both sides of the house. This vagrant plant is poking its head out through the lawn. Do you recognise it? It’s a pumpkin. There are several pumpkin platns in the garden but somehow this...

Whenever I go to countryside I find better fields

Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (23241) 9 Feb 25

There are better fields in the countryside. Where the fields are full of grass there are better soil in the countryside so the place is better for outdoor games. If children are also taken amidst nature they enjoy the fields and...

A lawn water sprinkler on a hot summer evening can be refreshing for the lawn and me!

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 24 Nov 24

The grass on the lawn is struggling to bear the hot and dry days and I try to water it when I remember. I found this sprinkler that I can attach the house to and it sprinkles the water all around. The water mists up a little and...

What's this on my lawn

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 26 Oct 24

With rains ceasing and the sun up, I've had some weird stuff grow on my grass lawn. This looks like grass, but is not looking good on the lawn as it grows taller. Is this going to choke the grass on the lawn and take over?

More lawnmowing this weekend and trying to make the lawn look neat.

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 15 Sep 24

I decided to tackle the front lawn today and it was quite cumbersome. I hadn't charged the battery for both the lawn mower and the edger and ran out halfway - so took a break. It looks way better after mowing and edging the lawn -...

Flowery weeds look pretty, but are dangerous.

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 15 Sep 24

With a lot of rains in the last month, the lawn is starting to get some weeds growing inbetween the grass. This often chokes the growth of the grass. Some of the weeds have pretty flowers, but don't get fooled - they are as...

My overgrown backyard

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 13 Sep 24

Last week, I finally got around to mowing the backyard. The grass was overgrown and there were plenty of weeds. It took quite an effort to mow it down and I may have damages the grass. There's still a lot of weeds to be removed....

A mushroom in the grass.

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 24 Aug 24

After the recent spell of rains, we've had a few mushrooms popping up in the grass lawn. I wonder what kind they are and if they are edible. I decided to play it safe and just pull them and put them in the bin.

A Day in the Yard, at least for my Missus

DW Davis @DWDavis (25797) • United States 4 Mar 23

K is taking advantage of the beautiful, sunny, cool morning we are having to do some work in the yard. I do what I can to help, but the arthritis limits how much assistance I can offer. One thing I could do was spray the weed and...

We were staying with friends in a residential area with a lovely garden and play area and got to see the colors of the sunset at dusk. There were so many colors and so many hues that changed so beautifully, that it was difficult...

I was at my sister's all day yesterday. It is exhausting for me right now because she has a lot of anxiety and cannot focus. She is depressed because she is losing her eyesight rapidly. And scared. And talks constantly and...

Dog day Sunday Challenge

Always smiling @allknowing (153530) • India 30 May 21

Yet another of the challenges I miss. Preiti loved sneaking on to the terrace and have a ball on the lawn. We never let her go there on her own as the parapet of the terrace was very low and we feared she might climb up...
