Yeah native plants does not mean you have to keep your lawn an overgrown jungle.
If it's your yard you should be allowed to have an overgrown jungle if you so wish.
I agree, if only you are controlling invasives, and promoting native plants. Emphesis on controlling invasives.
Most grasses that people intentionally plant and cultivate are invasive.
Just like what ICE are doing you mean?

Your land has effects on you're neighbors' land.
Anyone who has had a big tree stretching across the property line can tell you this.
What you say is true, but I have absolutely no idea which direction you are trying to go with that comment.
I'm guessing they're referring to the empty lawns that are clearly just there for show.
...do you see where you're posting?..thriving verdant habitats are kind of the entire point of a no-lawns community, and while you're free to rail against natural growth within groomed enviroments it's kind of an old-man-yells-at-cloud exercise in futility...
