I planted some bulbs in the lawn a few years back and they're in full swing through April so the patch survives.
Its actually a great way to give long grass a 'reason'
Was just about to trim the back lawn when my 8yo yelled out the window and demanded I stop. Definite proud dad moment.
Am hoping that the yellow rattle seed that I scattered in the autumn does something in one of my wild patches. We’re definitely getting more and more bugs in the patches but it would also be nice to have some flowers to look at.
@stevious If you don’t get what you might think of as traditional wildflowers there should be different types of grasses that all produce flowers, some are quite beautiful when observed closely.
Yep, doing it again this year.
Last cut done yesterday. Left some nice long bits out the front too, got cow parsley and wildflowers kicking off.
We scarrified a load of grass in the bit we normally let grow tall last autumn and bunged down loads of yellow rattle - hoping it'll take.
