I've been getting rid of the lawn. Gravel and a few beds of draught-resistant plants in the front. Small garden in the back and the grass is being replaced with clovers etc which require less water or mowing and are more bee-friendly

Why not just use clovers all around? They're so pretty.

I've started throwing down clover for the bees wherever my lawn gets bare, it makes way more sense. Keeping grass alive throughout the summer is a waste of time and water now.
