Rip it up and start again....

I'd agree with all of that except that I would set grass seed. It's very forgiving, just need to water if it turns dry.

And PF

Mr Bowles Golden Grass. Millium effusum aureum. Lovely in shade. Easy from seed.

MORNING FORKERS

Still too windy here. I'll play in the crystal palace (GH). Rescued some bulbs in flower this morning. A non gardening friend ( I have one or two) is having his patch laid to lawn. Nothing exciting but spring bulbs are always welcome. 

Got a good lot of pricking out to do as well.

PF the pheasants tail does well in shade, seeds around but is easy to remove. 

Can daffodils drown?

Do we need an excuse to buy more Alina? 

I've dug some up this morning whilst in flower. a friend is having a large piece of garden laid to lawn. I went on a rescue job. Don't know how thay'll fare but the alternative was the tip.

Hi franco. As you say, take the seed heads off for future prevention and just dig up what you don't want.

Can daffodils drown?

Some of mine have drowned but they were literally under water for weeks. If you've got leaves they're not dead so worth leaving there. Last year was very wet indeed, it must be better this year.

slugs and toddlers

Kids or no kids, I reckon the fewer poisons around the garden the better. Nothing ever does just the job you intended, there are always side effects.

worth buying primroses now?

A good buy djjjuk, if, as hollie hock says, you don't have any. They live for years and seed into  all sorts of places where you could never have planated them, eg little gaps in steps or right up against a tree. Lovely plants, just when you need them

Our own A to Z of our Gardening

I love moths. We run moth traps here in the summer and get some amazing species. Some you'd never see without trapping.
