Then in the backyard , my father planted a dichondra lawn 在后院，家父要我参与是个好主意。
2.
Dichondra is like a little one leaf clover and it will grow a couple of inches tall , so i had to mow it and of course we had a push mower 的人都晓得，它像小苜蓿，单叶苜蓿铺满地面，约几寸高。因此，我还是要刈草。
3.
Then the dichondra would overtake the weeds and the problem with weeds would be solved . and that s what happened . how strong is your faith today 于是我们就用了那肥料，结果只有很少野草长出来，每星期我都去把那些野草拔掉，否则，它们就会把diacondra挤死。
4.
So we started pulling those weeds by hand , one at a time . as soon as we finished . guess what . the weeds came up again . then a gardener told us there was a fertilizer specifically made for dichondra lawns that would strengthen the dichondra 有人介绍我们用一种专给diacondra用的特别肥料，用了这种肥料， diacondra会长得够壮，连野草的养份也抢走，这样就不必费神去拔野草。
5.
My parents had decided that the lawn to plant was a dichondra lawn that grows only in southern california . when we first planted that lawn , it was a disaster . with every shoot of grass that came up , there was a weed that sprouted beside it 我不知它为何有这名称，我只知道它几乎要了我的命初次种植这草坪简直就是灾难，每一根草都附带著一根野草，我们要用手把野草一根一根的拔掉，完成才没多久，猜猜发生甚么事？
