Honey bees are dying but you can help native bees in your area. Find out what they like and plant that shit. Also just letting weeds grow helps a lot of species.

I get leafcutter bees at my place as well as a few other solitary species

I can't do that! What about my nice green grass lawn? /s

My city will put a letter in my mailbox telling me to get rid of weeds and fine me $150 if I don't. Rip

Ouch. I have been trying to plant native plants in our garden. Luckily I don't have anything like that in my city.

How do they enforce that? HOA?

The actual city sends a fine. If you don't clean it, they send a crew. If you don't pay for the crew, they lien the property.

Source: got letter from the city a week ago.

In fairness, I've been dealing with a lot and there were some areas that looked like we were abandoned. I've been meaning to clean out the unwanted stuff so the flowers can grow. My lawn is mostly moss and clover and that's not what they cared about.

No, the city rolls around and if there are things sticking up out of the ground high enough outside of a flower bed they take pictures and send you a letter

Cities have a lot of soft power in that regard. Mine, just as an example, bans parking on grass. Even if you're not in a fancy neighborhood, and have been parking on your lawn underneath the spreading oak tree for the last 50 years, they can ticket you for it (and tow) if they feel like being ornery.

I think the usual wording for grass/plants goes along the lines of property values and nuisances to bring it within legal frameworks for what they can regulate.

Send them a letter back with the definition of a weed.

a wild plant growing where it is not wanted and in competition with cultivated plants.

If you want them there, they aren't weeds.
