Lawn Madness!
I would hate a garden without daises, dandelions and fairy rings. Plus,
a mixture of plants in a lawn attract many beneficial insects and help to preserve bio diversity, a thing much undervalued in our gardens. So, throw away the moss killer, weedkiller, lawn feed, roller and raise the blades on your mower a few inches. Let nature back in and let your lawn be part of nature, not apart from nature! Les ) We moved into our house last summer, and I did my best to keep the grass free of everything except grass, as I'd not had my own lawn before and got a bit 'seduced' by it! This year, though, I didn't have the time during spring and early summer. I've now noticed that my 8 year old, when playing out back, is regularly stopping - with his nose to the grass - and asking questions about whatever plant or insect he's found. So no more 'pristine' lawn for me, and hopefully a fuller appreciation of nature for him! Ellkebe -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |
