Default wildflowers or weeds?

Apply weedkiller as soon as growth has recommenced, before the weeds have
set seed. Dig and reconvert the ground into a lawn.

There really are verygood reasons why one does not see "wild gardens" or
"alpine lawns" in tiny suburban gardens except ones produced by neglect.

Franz, I think you're over-reacting!


I know

Sarah, please don't take my previous note on this issue seriously.
I was giving vent to the fact that that neighbour of mine (Not the one to
the East, but to the South) has a totally uncultivated back yard whose only
purpose seems to be to rain cowparsley, rosebay willowherb and dandelion
seeds into my garden.

She's talking about things like primroses and red campion. They're not
going to cause a problem to neighbours. Less than, say, Leycestria
formosa, some of the euphorbias, cotoneaster etc belonging to her
neighbour will cause to her.


Yes. Particularly euphorbias.
