Lilith---Just a suggestion!A few yrs ago,we had a spot,in front of the house,that had junk trees/bushes,trash,etc.I got rid of it all.
I then rented a rototiller & made it fairly level.I spread grass seed,
mixed with fertiliser & spread it.I have a small hand spreader that you can adjust,the flow on.I went to the Gardening Store.Blue Seal has a variety of things, & bought some bales of hay/straw.
If you don't cover the seed with hay/straw,the birds will eat the
seed.It's alot of work,but after a few yrs,I now have a lawn there,
& it looks much better then the brush/junk pile.It also increases the value of your property! Irish
P.S.They also have a large variety of grass seed.They had one for the local climate.
