I do mow, but it’s more like making hay - when the plants have grown tall, and most varieties have managed to bloom. I also try to de-synchronize it from neigbours’s activities, so the landscape would never be the same in every direction.
Also, mowing peppermint and dandelions is taboo in my yard. Peppermint blooms very long and repels mosquitos, while attracting lots of other bugs to drink nectar. Dandelions are just nice to look at, so I don’t do anything until they are “ready to fly”.
If I didn’t cut hay at all, I would get Artemisia growing here and unfortunately their pollen can ruin a week for me.
Looks nice.
