Emily Hurley Verrrrry carefully. ;)

I'm betting once the heights are established, each row is exactly the same width as the mower, so you just follow the spiral.

Do mowers have adjustable heights? Or....maybe you switch off and mow the length every couple weeks and let the other grow in?

What Houzz contributors are saying:

added by Frank Organ to See a Pattern Here? It's Conceptual Gardens, for Art's Sake

Spirals are one of the most distinct structural shapes in nature: ammonites, the pattern of seeds in a sunflower and the shape of DNA molecules, for instance. The spiral is a symbol of a spiritual journey to some and is a simple pattern used by many cultures.Used here as a design cut from grass, the spiral is merely a pattern that fills an open space.
