Pearl Grass Recovery - Part 1

Some time in 2005, I laid in my backyard some sod of pearl grass and it grew very well and healthy.

However, some time in 2006, I decided to have a backyard vegetable garden. Since then, that patch of pearl grass was abused. Pots of plant were place on the patch. My children and I even stepped through the patch to reach and work at the planter box next to it. I could not remember how the grass looked during those years of abused but I guess it sure was pretty bad.
