Daily details from the garden to bring you inspiration throughout the year
I do like to leave the seed heads of herbaceous perennials and grasses for as long as possible – for the birds, and for frosty displays – but around now practicality comes into the gardening equation, and access must be considered for a lumbering gardener and his many barrows full of mulch. Yesterday saw six cubic metres of wood chip being relocated to a rough area where we want to keep the weeds down before a later planting, and I’ll still be aching from that in a few days time when four tonnes of manure will need shifting. The birds seem to find plenty to eat in the mulch, so I don’t feel too bad about the seeds.text
