I know it’s winter and my grass is currently hiding under a layer of snow, but that doesn’t stop me from worrying about what to do with it when spring comes. I HATE to mow the lawn. I HATE to maintain a lawnmower. I’ve never found a competent landscaper. Right now, the idea of ForeverLawn sounds wonderful.

• ForeverLawn, Inc. – Grass without limits.

I first saw ForeverLawn in Las Vegas, Nevada at an outdoor shopping mall. Ironically, they feature that mall in their advertising:

When I first saw it, I thought that maybe this kind of lawn wouldn’t work in Utah because of our snow, but there is a dealer in Utah AND they even have synthetic lawns that are specifically meant to withstand dogs. It sounds like a dream come true to me.

If I had to choose whether to put in automatic sprinklers or just replace my lawn with astroturf, I’d choose the ForeverLawn in a heartbeat. It’s not as good for the environment as growing your own garden, but honestly, I’m never going to do that. This way, I save water and still have a gorgeous green grass.

Now, I just need to convince Mike that it’s a good idea…
