In case anyone’s not too sure.. this is what a 'spring lawn' is supposed to look like.
Breakdown:
• No irritating lawn-mower lines.
• A multitude of flowers.
• Lawn-mower rests, unperturbed in garden shed.
• No Louis X1V - 'rules over nature'.
• No walking up and down for hours, making a really annoying, loud noise and irritating the neighbours.
• Just peace, quiet and LOTS of bees.

Lovely! Did the flowers "show up", or did you seed them? If the latter, what flowers? I'd love to move my yard more towards this.
The flowers are all natural. We just let them grow ... aided by catching my mother-in-law on the hedgehog-cam, sneakily 'weeding' the Dandelions. 😬😊
You could just sprinkle wild-meadow flowers seeds, which can be very beautiful, but some grow quite tall, so you may have to rethink the lawn.
Ooooh.. creosote would be good to get rid of. Doesn't it get really hot in your summer?
Perfect! I know a few hedgehogs who'd just LOVE to snuffle around in there! 😊
Well ... a few years ago, I was really curious about who was going around in the night, so I bought a cheap little infra-red wildlife camera. I discovered that we had ~10 hedgehogs as nightly visitors and perhaps some snoozing away their days, in a pile of leaves or under a bush in the garden.
The surprise was discovering that being a hedgehog, is a bit like living with Putin.
I've got videos somewhere of him shoving another hedgehog ~3metres. He's known as Dozer.
