my front yard faces SSW and gets pummeled by the sun all summer long and growing grass is a real pain in the butt, every year it's a struggle to keep it green thru the months of July and August even w/ watering. i've used the Scotts 4 step every year but i can't keep it green and it makes the house look like snot. i've weighed the options that i can think of and i'm leaning toward using stone fro the front. my pros and cons are too long to list so if anyone has any thoughts or ideas, their own experiences would be helpful and i'd appreciate it.
