  I think in drier areas, where grass often struggles in summer without loads of watering [not so good for the environment nowadays!] Prunella, common old daisies, and other low growing plants, are often a brilliant solution as they can cope with drought. 
  However, if you like a nice grassy, green lawn, it's not so good 

  It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

  My lawn although small is a mixture of full sun,shade,dry,damp etc so I have just let everything grow where it does best!

  Often the best way - and sometimes the only way @madpenguin!
  My n. west facing front grass [not really a lawn] is the same. As long as it's fairly green, I'm quite happy. Moss is green and it has a fair bit of that
