Lawn Edging

There is nothing like the edging of a newly mown lawn for making the garden look smart again. A really useful half moon cutter is an essential if you have a lot of edges to keep tidy.

 

Now what under-planting can I manage here?

The stone work for the new cottage garden bed is also taking shape. It will soon be time to take off the weed suppressing mulch mat which has been down since the autumn. This will then reveal some weed free space. The retaining walls are yet to be finished but hard landscaping is definitely one of my favourite jobs.

This will be the new home of the plants being grown on in the conservatory. But I suspect the soil will need plenty of work.
