I’ve Just Started a Lanw Blog

2015/10/03 2016/04/17

Morning backyard lawn, just after mowing. Deep green. A red lawn mower in distant.
I’ve just started a blog of lawn. We built our new home and planted Korai-Shiba (Zoysiagrass, a Japanese lawn grass) in our backyard in 2010, and then replaced it to a low-maintenance Korai-Shiba, TM9, in 2013.
The photo is my best shot this year, after mowing, in the morning of August 2, 2015.

Backyard lawn about noon. The green lawn is glowing in summer sunshine.
