What would you think if I were to plant some sunflower seeds evry now and again on this land? I did read somewhere one should never plant corn flower seeds anywhere apartf rom your own garden as they are quite prolific once they get started and the farmers hate them. I obviously don't want to get in to trouble. It's never a good idea to plant non-native species where they cannot be controlled. it's probably not very polite to plant anything on other people's land. *If you introduce invasive weeds you could be charged with trespass or criminal damage. If you do want to brighten up a scrap of land, you ought to be thinking of native wild plants. *Your local wildlife trust may have information, and possibly even sell seeds.http://www.lincstrust.org.uk/factshe...adow/index.php - and do get the permission of the landowner Go Ahead, the mice will love them and if any grow then the birds and mice will have a feast in the autumn. David Hill That's what I was thinking, and of course the lovely smiley flowers. |
