Insane Lawns (5)
Saturday, December 15th, 2007
Location: Pasadena, CA
Climate zone: dry-summer subtropical, drought since 2006
Backyard of: the Ritz Carlton Hotel
Viewed by: e.g. people spending $549 (weekend rate) on the “Huntington Suite ”
Reasons to ask for money back: brown patches, no gardeners or power tools active when property was inspected by our lawn experts
Note to owner: We liked the squishy sound your lawn made when stepped upon. A slight increase of the modest room rates might provide the means for turning this lawn into an even soggier swamp. Go for it!
