Mulch-only yard could start landscaping trend

Regarding the July 26 article about Mary Fontaine’s battle over her yard:

I think Fontaine’s yard looks great. I’d like to do the same to my yard.

It could become a great trend. Just breaking up the mulch with some green shrubs could start a mulch-and-shrub competition.

I applaud the ideals behind Mary Fontaine's efforts, but I also know that purchasing a home in a neighborhood with a homeowners' association puts restrictions on what a property owner can or cannot do. That's why I live in the country in a neighborhood with very minimal restrictions.
