Ecco come appare attualmente il mio giardino. Probabilmente taglierò l’erba questa settimana, ma di solito la lascio riposare almeno così a lungo prima di falciarla. Onestamente, non mi importa il suo aspetto e in un certo senso lo preferisco. So che è pieno di erbacce, ma mi piacciono i fiori e penso che siano dolci, inoltre forniscono risorse per le api e altri animali. Ma mio padre è rimasto inorridito quando l’ha visto..😂 Questa è la prima volta che vivo in Germania o ho un qualsiasi tipo di spazio in giardino – qualche mese fa è stata la prima volta che falciavo l’erba in vita mia – e sono solo curioso di sapere se ho il mio un giardino come questo darebbe fastidio ai miei vicini o darebbe fastidio? Cosa ne pensi?

I like it. That doesn’t mean that people won’t give you the side-eye, but you need to decide how much to care about it.
I’m in a somewhat complex situation lawn-wise, as I have the ground floor flat and responsibility about the garden, but above me there’s a woman who would prefer everything natural to just be poured over with concrete and painted green. So to keep the peace, I do mow… but I do it rarely, and I keep “wild” corners on the edges. I also mow around clusters of flowers in the lawn.
Ultimately it’s your lawn, your life.
Just make sure to trim anything that’s hanging outside your property and over the sidewalk. But besides that, I don’t see any potential problem.
I mean, it doesn’t seem to bother anyone on adjacent lots, doesn’t present any sort of hazard to visitors, or give any other reason for concern from what I can see. Seems fair enough.
>But my dad was horrified when he saw it..😂
I mean, if he lives with you, you might have to come to some kind of agreement over this, but if he doesn’t, it’s not his choice.
If you like it and aren’t obliged (e.g. by your landlord) to mow it, just don’t.
Keep it as you see fit as long as it doesn’t intrude through the fence or over the borders into the neighboring space, plus it’s good for the bees. Just be aware that long grass also helps to harbor ticks.
That’s not even nearly as messy as my garden. Last weekend I had to mow it all by hand with a scythe because I waited so long that the lawn mower couldn’t get through it anymore. It was just so full of flowers and bees that I couldn’t bring myself to mow it.
You can do with your garden whatever you like unless there is some rule that says it needs to be taken care of in a certain way. Just make sure nothing grows/hangs into neighboring lots or encroaches on the sidewalk and you’ll be fine. And don’t let anything grow in the gaps between the stones, that can damage them and in case you are renting your landlord will not be pleased.
Allowing grass to grow a bit taller also keeps it healthier once summer with high temperatures hit, the short grass dries to a dead brown something quickly, so it can be healthier for the plants to let it grow a bit longer
Yes. Why would it not be acceptable. This is not the backwards states with their HOA bullshit.
I love it.
