Talkback: Butterflies
Veined that our buddleia bushes look like they're covered in dancing confetti! I agree with John waters' comment. A couple of years ago I did away with all insecticides, slug pellets, weed killers etc. I do not cut the lawns too closely and then only by John Waters

Talkback: Do we really want wildlife in our gardens?

What is your kind of garden?
through and over each other. Which gardeing style produces the most desirable gardens? Each to their own I say. I like the cottage style with lots of plants close to each other. The advantage being there's no room for weeds! But some like plants by Gardening Grandma

Talkback: Wildlife-friendly plants
flowers around our pond but it is a very large clay bottomed pond (abt 100 sq mtrs) and the water seeps several metres into the lawn. I think the only thing I can grow would be bog plants and they would have to compete with the grass. Most of the pond by kaycurtis
