It has to be done, haha. Hard work getting turfs up but you need the space.
Lol Karen, you make me smile ..... As if us lot have time to relax, if I sit all I can see are jobs that need doing.

Simbad, well done girl! Grass is only useful for sheep etc, anyway! Well in my humble oppinion! LOL!

I agree, you have far too much grass there !!

Are you going to be a national collection holder?

Thanks for the encouragement everyone, may continue round another side,lol.
Plenty of room for the sun lounger Karen a paved area and a bit of decking round the pond??? does that mean I could get rid of all the grass, lol, Rob actually encourages me to buy more less grass to cut,lol.
Know what you mean though Dawn certainly making more work for myself weeding, like you I never sit still for long;-)
Your welcome to it Paul, just trying to decide where to put it all, don't think the council men'll be too happy if I put it in my green bin :-)
Ooo if only I had the room Helenium that would be my dream have over 140 now but think Polliesdaylilies beats me with over 1500!!!!, she's a member on here added a few pictures the other day of her lovely daylilies, just put Polliesdaylilies in search and you'll find them, more for the wishlist aaargh.

Just lay the grass upside down, grass on grass soil on soil and build a stack, it will rot down on its own then you can add it somewhere. Thanks! I'll have a look at the site. Can you suggest any good white ones?

Thanks Helenium, OH took it all down the garden to our allotment and stacked it on there:-)
I only have a couple of whites, well near whites as don't think there is one thats pure white, 'Joan Senior' which is an older but reliable variety increases really rapidly and always covered in flowers, my other is 'Arctic Snow' pretty similar but has slight hints of pink in it, now one near white I'd really like is a 'Margo Reed Indeed' UFO Cascade form with 8inch flowers:-)

Thanks Simbad, I like the 'Morgot Reed Indeed'. One I think is nice but not white, is 'Plush' I like those shaped petals, and the lovely dark colours!

I can see it wont be long before the borders go the same way as the grass!!! I didnt realise you had OTHER flowers too lol!
