My mom was a well-trained gardener who volunteered hours at the local “extension” (university dept that answers any & all gardening Q’s). At some point she converted her big lawn in to a clover lawn, with the benefits being that it could feed pollinators and didn’t need to be mowed, since that type of clover only grew to a certain height.
Soon after she passed, the person in charge of the lawn decided to wipe out the clover and reinstall some type of lawn grass. I couldn’t believe it. They even explained to me that it was necessary, because mowing a clover lawn could be dangerous due to rocks potentially being kicked up…
In his defense, I suppose a certain amount of small material (including a few little rocks) would probably accumulate over time, hidden by the clover. So that part’s kind of fair, I guess.
Just that, if you don’t need to actually mow it, then what matters it? If I had to speculate, I’d guess that he was used to a lifetime of grass lawns, felt a comfort zone there, and was always a bit uneasy about the clover lawn. And yet, didn’t feel up to arguing that with a certified Master Gardener while she was still alive.

Do… do rocks just spontaneously appear in the ground in his world? Like how people used to think frogs came into being
That’s the rock fairy bro. That or if there are already rocks they, you know, breed and stuff.
