Yeah, I'm not so sure this whole "flowers make grass grow" thing holds any water.Raining for the first time in a while in my town. Do I still have to water my flowers if I want the grass to grow underneath them?
It grows where you don't walk, and it vanishes where you do. I suspect that this idea that "flowers make grass grow" are based on the experiences of those who walk around their flowers. I routinely walk through mine (they're all over the place, after all, and I have to thoroughly water them!) and I see no evidence their presence is making grass grow. However, areas that I would not typically walk throughsuch as between trees that have nothing interesting between themare solidly grassed.
