Can anyone help? I have spent a lot of time this spring and summer
bringing my lawn back to life after a year of abuse (we had an extension
built and the builders used our back lawn as a dumping ground)but I am
concerned about the harsher weather in Winter.
Does anyone have any good ideas of the things that I can be doing to
prepare my garden for the winter months to ensure that I still get lush
green grass back in Spring 2011?


Rake, aerate, top dress, and over seed.
