Lawns need more care than we think,weeds seem to fly in from everywhere, have you noticed that the council don't cut the verges, spreading dandilions all over the place, must be the most prolific plant in England because of neglect.

When I have mowed my lawns, I look carefully for any signs of weeks and spray with a lawn weed killer spray. Despite my neighbours having lots of dandelions etc., my lawns are pretty clear of weeds - except for an appearance of yellow trefoil this week! Sprayed with lawn weed killer and fingers crossed!

I am new to gardening and recently inherited a massive neglected garden. Buttercups are a problem. Is there any piont in sowing grass seed on the areas that are massivlely overgrown with buttercups, they are just beginning to grow back now. My dream is to have a lovely grassy lawn....but i fear it may not be the case...any ideas, tips would be appreciated...also wild rabbits love to eat anything I have planted..so ideas on that would be good too x

Mowing is made much easier by having a good edge to mow to in the first place. I've got a recycled plastic lawn edge - it was easy to fit and is really durable http://www.best4garden.co.uk/
There's a picture of the kind of thing I mean on here.

I run a garden maintenance services in norfolk we have had a mild winter compare to some in the country i must say i cut my last lawn at the end of november 2011 thinking thats it till march how wrong i was as on the 9th of jan 2012 the lawnmower came out of the shed  and cut the lawns of my customers on a high cut then we had snow at begin of feb now again at end of feb i got the lawnmower out and cut the lawns agian and since then have been cutting slowly lowering the deck of mower i notice on firday that the houseing trust have been and cut the lawns near my house and they are looking very pooorly what am adviseing to anyone we should not say you only cut between march and october as it makes harder work for first cut and takes awhile to recover cutting throuh the winter taking alittle of and just when you can helps you alot when weather permits and keeps garden looking tidy through winter
