Hi clogger head,to organise my neighbours to as much clean the their own front path would take a major operation since most don't talk to each other and think it beneath them to do so.So I think I am just going to have to do it myself ....off to get a brush and barrow ,see you .

neighbours extention!

I have the same problem from my kitchen window I have now the equivalent of a toilet block where once a garden stood.I like you want to cover this from sight.I am planning on a trellis along the fence with my favorite Montana clematis to climb ,if possible over the block as well!!!

Plant Suggestions please

How about a few Annuals to brighten up the fence,Marigolds,Godetia,stocks,old fashion cottage type plants too,Lupins,Hollyhocks,Delphiniums and Tobacco plants with scent,plants to give scent and welcome when people come to your door.

Can I plant a lawn on heavy clay

Posted: 27/02/2013 at 15:01

I have heavy clay soil lawn with a under ground spring running through it and on  a hill,nothing is impossible and yes it gets water logged but I try to keep off until spring and of course if there is no deluge of rain it dries out.

Bored youngsters or mindless adults,its no excuse .

It is lovely to see someone taking a pride in the front of their home and giving a lovely display.Today as I walk my area,most front gardens are taking up for brick drive ways and piles of grit and not a flower in sight.(90% )and only a few gardens with flowers.
