    One customer so far. Customers got an 1.5 acre garden. And a third is wild flower meadow which I found puzzling and daft.

      Here the bees are far more interested in feeding on the borage in the back garden than searching for slim pickings on the front lawn . 

      Grow borage which is in full flower in May and beneficial , Bees feast on it and use less energy than they do having to scavenge lawns in my opinion .

       

  • I have a few domestic clients who request that one area is left un-mown, I don't mind one bit as less work for me to do now, and just strim it down later in the year. It's their garden, after all. When the clover comes into flower I have one where i leave random patches where it's densest, with artistically curved edges. None of these are fine lawns in the conventional sense. If anyone was extreme enough to request the whole garden to be left, I would advise on the potential increased future costs of remedial work
