    Yep we had a small 3m square patch of paving, we tried turf and it died due to overuse with kids playing and use using it for sitting out, picnics and BBQs. The choice is deck or fake grass and fake grass is cheaper.

    We have wildflower border and fake grass currently.

        BBQ is on a couple of paving slabs, was love talking about rh social seating and eating But paving slabs are hard, less comfy for play and seating. Also they get very hot in summer (seem to get hotter than the fake grass). I don’t see why dead area of stone is any better

        Hardy ground cover may work but we have struggled to find any hardy enough to establish.
