Your personal bias toward East Coast lawns doesn't change the real meaning
of words. "Xeriscape" means "desert landscape." It doesn't mean "no
landscape."

"Zero landscape" presumably means that no effort has been expended to make
the area look the way it does. Maintaining a good-looking desert landscape
is by no means effortless. Therefore "xeriscape" and "zeroscape" don't mean
the same thing.

It's entirely possible that Sycophant expends no effort whatsoever to make
her property look good. I suppose a rat-infested yard full of Sahara mustard
and falling-down rusted fence *would* qualify as a "zeroscape." Maybe that's
what she has. But that's not the same thing as a xeriscape.

zero is not analogous with xeros.

Xeriscape derives from the greek work xeros meaning dry. Xeriscape
is a horticultural term for landscaping in xerothermic regions (hot and
dry) where only xerophyte plants with xeromorphic adaptations can
survive.

I *hate* the desert. Can't stand succulents or anything else
associated with that type of low water landscaping. It's zero
landscape AFAIC.

Yup, "Sycophant" fits you perfectly. What a drug-addled vacuum-head you are!
Your attempt to weasel your way out of it by saying "zeroscape is analogous
to xeriscape" is transparent and laughable. You should have just admitted
that you made a mistake instead of piling on the bullshit.

As far as Pussy's "pot metal" allegation, I've already addressed that
separately: It *is* possible to sharpen scoops. They *do* work better. His
blather is nothing more than ignorant anile shouting into the wind.

It's easy to see why you got fired: Your drug habit (no doubt compounded by
stealing from your employer to pay for your drug habit) piled on top of your
sickening personality piled on top of your utter lack of cognitive ability
pretty much makes you unemployable. Have you already applied for disability,
or are the forms too complicated for you?

In a tropical climate the night/day/seasonal temperature and humidity
level is more constant (so it's a year-round crop).

In temperate or continental climates, the wider variation in
temperature and humidity (day and night, or day to day) can stress the
plant into bolting or collapsing.
