  • I have never understood the appeal of turf, and if lawns had just been invented I think they would struggle to catch on. No flowers, no scent, inedible, boring plain green leaves, need pruning every week with a special expensive tool to do it. Does nothing to suppress weeds either.

    I remember a client once telling me :

    " the road to the perfect lawn is the same as that to bankruptcy"

    Lovely though bulkerb.

    I take my hat off to your perseverence in the face of natural adversity.

    If you live in Derbyshire, as I do.
  • Hi bulkerb your lawn looks superb I must say it makes smile when people say

    oh they are too much trouble.

    I use my lawns as a weekly workout in season and having a heavy roller petrol mower try for perfection,but looking at yours I still have a way to go..
