Hopeless lawn - sow seeds or pave?
Hi all
I have a scruffy piece of lawn (more like buttercups, dandelions and clover actually - tiny bit of grass in there somewhere...). It's about 3 x 6 metres. I've always had problems with it and have tried sowing more grass seed in several places in the past, only some of which has taken. It has shrubs over-hanging it in several places (fuschias, hebes, etc) and because of that there are several dark shady spots as well as places that get a fair amount of sun. Another problem is on one side I have a huge amount of ivy growing up a wall/outhouse and it's roots are now also growing into the 'grass'. Do I dig the whole lot up and try to seed again from scratch? Is it better to give up on grass altogether and pave it in some way? Would I be able to do either myself? Would it be expensive to get someone in to do it? Are there any websites/other information that would be useful for me? Thanks in advance. Eleni. |
