What should I put here? This area gets muddy when it rains. Hey all, I recently bought my first home and had a few young, invasive trees growing super close on this side of the house. Had them removed so it looks pretty rough. Due to the slope of the land, water often collects here whenever it rains, so it can get a bit muddy. I live in TX and we usually have droughts, so flooding isn't too much of a concern. I'm thinking I can lay flagstones here, or maybe add some mulch and shrubbery to help with the water? Should I add tarps underneath? Or would it be better just to plant grass? Ideas and thoughts appreciated! Originally by u/hermsta on Reddit: https://tinyurl.com/29ktfme2
