    Retired from gardening for other people to create my own, before i ran out of time! Have woods and scrub and meadow, AND couch grass, ground elder, mares tails and so much blackthorn! Love it.

      Hello & :sign0016: to GC.

      Sounds like you have a great project on your hands there :dbgrtmb:, if you manage to get rid of that ground elder please share your secret with me! ;) I have the dam stuff in one bed & it drives me bonkers! :rolleyespink:
      I shall look forward to hearing about your progress & maybe seeing some photos too.

      Happy gardening :dbgrtmb:

      Ah, so you are a "nature" gardener then? :heehee:

      Pull up a chair, grab a cuppa and don't be shy - have a good nosey around.

      Looking forward to getting to know you around the forums; hope you enjoy your stay :thumbsup:

      Bonjour and :sign0016: I did just the same as you but on a bare clay-soil field:) Just bindweed, mare's tail, creeping thistle and millions of annual weeds here! Whereabouts are you in the SW?

      Thankyou for your welcome messages. I have been working on this garden for many years now but only nine full time. Have to say that i am not hot on the Techy stuff so although i have many photos putting some on here may take a while! Next door to you Noisette47, The gers. Do my shopping in Agen.

        Pergain Taillac. Lived not far from there, over twenty years ago. Berrac, near La Romieu. Now on the border with 82 and 47. image.jpg
