Most people share their front lawns with their neighbors, i.e., you can't tell where one ends and the other begins. I'm sure there is artificial turf that looks quite real, but it will always look fake when side-by-side with natural grass.

Also, you'd probably have to hire a surveyor to make sure you don't overstep/understep your property bounderies during installation.

I can so tell where my yard ends and theirs begins. I don't care what people do with their backyard but the front yard is a different story. There are several yards in my neighborhood (including my neighbor) that just have dirt/weeds. It's just awful.

Has anyone used the Grass Stitcher before?
It got highly rated on Amazon but I'm a little skeptical.
My yard also looks like yours, with an assortment of weeds

Can anyone recommend someone who can design and install xeriscaping at a reasonable price? Probably not a licensed landscape architect--just someone who is naturally talented and has their own work crew?
