Freshly cleared overgrowth
So, I’ve decided to try to reclaim our garden.
I will have about 8 areas to do. I know it’s not the best time of year for it, but I just couldn’t give the brambles and ivy/ground elder another free season!
I’ve got one bed, which wasn’t as bad as the others forked over and it reasonable condition. My plan for that, I’ve got about 10 dahlias in pots and there going in. I’ve got an hellebore in another bed that needs clearing which I’m going to move in (is it a good time to do that?)
then I’ve got one freshly cleared bed, still lots of ground elder. I was going to fork it over and loosen it. Then I’m not sure what to do with it until autumn. I don’t want to leave it bare really. I’ve got some gooseberry and fruit bushes which I hope to be able to move from somewhere else in the garden later in the year.
Then I’ve got lots more overgrowth to clear! What is best thing to do with cleared areas until I’m ready to plant them up.
