My front yard is on
My front yard is on its second year with Sunday and it's looking better than ever. Our back yard is brand new grass. We are working to get it to fill in and hoping Sunday will help over the next few years. The only thing I miss is a weed control that I can spray the entire lawn with to kill weeds and leave the grass.
