For some reason, a lawn enthusiast will get much more stick for wanting to maintain their prized sward in tip top condition over a someone who is more interested in keeping their flower borders looking lush, fresh and turgid. Lawn owners can reduce the amount of water that they need to apply by improving the soil conditions and creating a favourable root zone for the lawn. I have covered the subject on the Landscape Juice blog this morning in a rather long post with a rather convoluted analogy using a bed mattress and sponge - <a href="http://www.landscapejuice.com/2008/08/think-before-wa.html">Most lawns are waste of valuable water</a>.
