Lawns

just mow them every week they will soon disappear , but by the sounds of it really bad drainage. Bog garden would be ideal have you thought of that, lots of plants would love it Hi as well nearly forgot Spruce

I did my first cut two weeks ago and until yesterday we'd had three weeks of dry weather. The rain was needed, as everything was looking a bit parched on my sandy soil. Like Grannie Annie my front garden is choked with moss, so that will need a lot of work this year.

Cut mine about an hour ago, much neater and better!

Shiney - Regarding the second picture, yep this is what we are thinking too. I'm looking forward to being able to take time out from the heavy duty stuff to be honest and focus more on the flowers etc. As soon as the snow has gone we'll get rid of the dead leaves. I'll definitely keep you all...

No chance of mowing here,my lawn would make for a cracking game of Rugby right now

Yah, that would be most people I reckon - if the lawn needs creating then ... it needs creating! For a "repair", or a "round the back", job it might be possible to wait until next Autumn, and if its possible to wait then I think that is best. But 99% of the "I need a new lawn" jobs are going to...

I'm on a couple of techies forums. Its almost a shame I can't remember which ones. I once spent about 10 minutes getting wound up because a forum was denying my login attempts even though I was definitely 100% certain I'd put the right credentials in. I was right, they were the right...

We still have to wade/swim through areas formerly known as "lawn". Still, at least the ducks are happy

Hi, I would be really grateful for any advice/reassurance on something. I am trying to create a nature trail around a large garden and I thought a great feature would be a wildflower lawn. earlier in the year I made the garden pond deeper and piled up all the soil I dug out of the bottom....

Thanks guy's, so now I know its liverwort, do I... buy some chips and put loads and loads of vinegar on them...then stand around the area and begin eating, and if some vinegar fall on to the liverwort will it kill it especially if I've washed my hands before hand with washing up liquid ?? I know...

Copy this to Facebok & we'll find out This is nothing, leafmold season is coming up, just wait to see how exited we get then

The seed has been scattered, if you'll pardon the expression.

If you want to have a nice lawn you need to prepare the area (same method whether you are using turf or seed ...) If you kill it with Glyphosate/Roundup it will take a couple of weeks to do the killing, and that will delay when you can start, and as Sheal said its getting late in the year (but...

where can i get the hawk kite from?

That's made a big difference to the garden Mowgley.

thanks kristen

This is what I am now thinking of doing!!! Val

Good plan! It's a very odd dilution rate. Your email probably fell into the 'too difficult' pile and the person couldn't be bothered checking properly. I have self heal too, mostly I just let it get on with things! Once it spreads too far I pull a large clump up at a time. Otherwise I'd go...

Don't let it urinate on the grass. Dog urine can cause patches in lawns.
