Thanks for all the advice, obviously its not a case of buying a bag of seeds and then scattering them onto the soil, if its of any more help the area they are to be planted is well drained and gets full sunshine most of the day, would it be a better idea to buy single packets of seeds so as to do away with the grasses,weeds etc any advice on what type to suit the conditions (the border is around a paved patio area ).....CHEERS
