And then it was taken away.

"Although selected by the Pulitzer Prize jury on fiction for the 1974 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, the Pulitzer Advisory Board was offended by its content, some of which was described as "'unreadable', 'turgid', 'overwritten', and in parts 'obscene'".^([2]) No Pulitzer Prize was awarded for fiction that year.^([2])^([3]) The novel was nominated for the 1973 Nebula Award for Best Novel.^([4])^(")

What low lying shrubs do well here in Lawrence?

I've got a problem area- crab grass- on the lawn and I'm thinking I'll put in some shrubs. I've also been thinking about putting in something like catnip. Going for that xeriscape look. The area is in the sun.
