      Even worse, watering lawns. Not only in many places there is water restriction during the summer season and people watering their lawn do-it illegally, but the only consequences is that you have to mow-it more often. If you want to have green-grass, go to Britain or Netherlands where it’s always raining and stop living around the Mediterranean

        Can confirm. Endless rain this summer in the UK. No grass watering required (not that it is ever required…). Didn’t stop my neighbour watering on the few sunny weeks we’ve had…

        Trust me, it isn’t always raining in the Netherlands.

        We too have had summer seasons where the ground water is so low, there are restrictions on watering your lawn.

      Is there a cheap low maintenance lawn substitute that you can walk on and doesn’t get obnoxiously tall and allergy inducing?
