Hi everyone, looking for some advice.

The lawn in my new place is a disaster - the grass (where there is grass) is
hip high. It is populated with moss, weeds and worst of all the ground
appears to be 70% brick rubble and 30% dead dirt. Its in just about the
worst condition possible. What would be the best rescue plan? I am just
looking to finish with a half decent lawn but I am unsure where to start.
The stones are so bad I am worried I will break the lawnmower if I take it
out there!

Many thanks

Kevin

As above plus draw up a couple of beds and use the poor soil/stony
grounds for plants that would love it. Don't keep it square or
rectangular, but create a path through your garden with a bit of lawn
at the end, or front, which will give the garden a wild but soft look.
Ho! And don't use chemicals ;o)
