I think the back being basically surrounded by the house an 8' fence keeps the volunteer plants out. I don't water or mow. For most of the year mine is the greenest lawn an the block. Last spring I pointed this out to my neighbor who promptly replied that it was mostly weeds. I told her a weed is an unwanted plant.

Dallas has a very liberal code and as long as the plants growing are naturally occurring anything goes.
Creating healthy soil must become the norm & no longer be the exception.
