This is nasty grass I do not know it right name bit it trying to take over so I am trying to clear it we have some fennel at the back I belive it broze fennel but not sure
Trying to take the bindweed and bramble out as well as I have some in the backgarden
You can just see the marigolds through the grass its hard work but will be worth it when it done
I have one wheelbarrow full already but I will not be composting it here as I do not have a burning area
Came in for lunch then the heavens open just as I had finshed getting the washing in whitch was good
We managed to take it to the tip on Saturday I planted my new tree on Sunday
Weeping willow once the pond is up and running it will look lovely in years to come
my ground is so hard to dig i planted my new plants that i brought yesterday this morning and it was so hard but there in still need to weed the grass out but it getting their slowly
That grass does look nasty. If it weren’t for the marigolds, I would be tempted to put black plastic over the patch and kill it off rather than use more labour-intensive mechanical means.
Thank you Helen that is one reason it taking me so long i was told to do it the other way dig the lavender and marigolds up but the soil has not been worked on for ten years so very hard in deed , i have to check the wild flower mix i thinking of putting down or one of this flower pouched you just sprinkling all over plus have to becareful of drain near by have a blessed weekend
You could try greens manure to help break up the soil – I understand rye grass is a good one, though that is sown later in the year.
Thank you Helen for your advice
Bronze fennel is a lovely plant, and so are weeping willows. I hope that you enjoyed your garden club day out. Happy gardening. xx
