RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - Tired of mowing the lawn or trying to get grass to grow? The solution is native landscaping. Some love caring for their grass lawns, and that’s fine. Lawns are great for kids and look beautiful when maintained. However, many don’t want to push a mower around in the summer heat, but still want a pretty yard. That’s where native plants come to the rescue.
