Palms and untamed wild area around it


Palms and untamed wild area around it (Trachycarpus fortunei (Chusan palm))

9 May 2015
The space from the palms down to the laurel hedge is truly a nightmare and it gives me a severe headache. Therefore I try not to look at it (lol). Loads of rubbish grow there such as stingy nettles, brambles, dandelions and etc. and the sizes of them are out of this world; remarkably huge!! Some of the weeds are so tall; there is a lot of hairy-and-giant-leaved unknown weed and it's about 1 metre in height at the moment. In addition, the density of the weeds are so high that we can't even set foot in the area!! Well, a strimmer arrived yesterday, which means ... my husband (or me???????) will have to tackle the space very soon. Aghhhhh!!!!! DAUNTING!!!!!!
