Default shady & wet


Colin wrote in message ...
In the far corner of my garden it is shady & wet (large trees behind

garden,
no sunshine), the soil is clay and my lawn has died (due to the wet?)

Has
anybody got any ideas how to help my grass to grow?


Give up on the grass and plant things that like wet, shady places. I used
ferns, including a tree fern, for a similar area in my garden.


Agree, my first thought was "lucky chap, make a good fernery".
