There are battles here when people try to transition from a traditional lawn to native plants that do not fit in with the monotony of lawn grass. I have not run into into problems as of yet, but my front is still pretty traditional, I'm transitioning to sedges and other natives. However, I do know people that have had a representative of weed control for the city come to inspect their property after complaints. I'm glad I do not have an HOA or I probably would have never been able to do what I am currently doing.

Peace
