The real answer is to plant native ground ground cover.

Agreed. That's exactly what a meadow is in the UK.

Clover tends to be a good thing. Bees love it too. And it doesn't need fertilizer as it takes nitrogen from the air. It also tends to not get out of hand.

We use clover. Max, it only grows like 8" or so (which isn't as tall as it sounds. We mow it a few times a year.

It is drought tolerant too, so we don't need to water the lawn. It's win-win-win.
