raised border

The whole garden looks great. I love it!

Looks great.

Looks so pretty and colourful . well done!

thankyou so much girls, so glad you like it :o)

it looks fab San and sooooo healthy and luscious - there is not a leaf out of place - you can come round to mine anytime to sweep up !!!

lol angieim always weeding a clipping dead leaves, but its path clearing i hate between the block pathing and flags grrr,

You've done really well Sandra, it looks good! I put a line of dry salt over the weeds that pop up between my slabs Sandra. Really cheap and effective :-))

will try that dawn thanx :o) or shall i say baz will heehe

Nice one Sandra - get him down to Lidl (15p a packet) and get him to sprinkle - take effect in a couple of days and no chemicals as such!

going to lidl tomoz with son at some point for his shopping,,

That's it then, its near the eggs, olive oil and herbs - blue and white box, 15p. Get son to carry though Sandra, lol.

lol dawn thanx for dirrections otherwise i may have had to get sat nav onto it, heheeh

ooh Thanks for that Dawn my flag stones have a life of their own - if I turn my back another weed shows up - it's my day off tomorrow so gonna do some "salting" - while we're on the subject of no chemicals - I have been experimenting with a mild soloution of washing up liquid in a spray bottle to eradicate / repel greenfly etc - I don't know if it's working or else greenfly and friends have gone south this month but have had not so much a problem in last few weeks

yes i use that angie it does work

Hi Angie - I've not used washing up liquid solution for greenfly but others say it works. I dont like to use chemicals - especially slug pellets. I have a gravel drive which the grass/weeds seem to like to grow in - strange as a good solid base, anyway ..... a sprinkling of salt soon kills them off. Not good for bad backs though, bending to sprinkle, lol, it works quick though.

of course washing liquid is chemicals, doh wasnt thinking , luckerly had no greenfly this year but im sure they will find me next year lol, going to rest my back a while now girls, catch you later x

Take care Sandra x

:o))

I'm not mad about slug pellets either but have used them on an occassion when I get really frustrated - was thinking of getting my 5 year old to do the "salting" that may save my back - and get him more involved with my gardening and after all he has to earn his keep !!

night night Sandra x

Ha ha Angie, yes, start them young, lol.

LOL Dawn x
