“Easy to get a lawn with” sounds like “easy to get along with.” “Easy to get a lawn with” was used by a seed company in an advertisement in the New York (NY) Times on March 12, 1961.
 
A joke was posted on Twitter on April 12, 2017:
 
“I think I’m going to hire the same landscaper I used last year - he was really easy to get a lawn with.”
