Hi all,

snip My question is what do we
need to do to eventually turn it into a lawn?

Hi

I seeded a small lawn last spring using the BBC site guide:

I'm a total beginner too, but it worked a treat, went great guns all
summer. Looks a bit scruffy now, mainly cos I let too many overhanging
plants do their thing too long, so I'll need to re-seed round the
edges. But otherwise I'd recommend seeding. It's so exciting when it
finally starts to come up.

good luck
Katharine
