... Local council said today they will clear her garden after I give the keys back, so I assume that means they will just pull out anything I don’t re home.
That's what happens here. When my old neighbour (in a council house) moved to a bungalow after becoming disabled, the council ripped out all the plants except the lawn grass (and embedded weeds), including a mature lilac tree. The grass areas were mowed very short and the rest just left to grow weeds, and it all got trampled on and used as a dumping ground for materials, skips etc while they re-furbished the interior.
Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
Hi everyone. Well after an emotional rollercoaster over the last 8 weeks I’m back home in France. In the end mums garden was either given to friends and neighbors or a lot was collected by a local community garden group.
the local group was delighted to receive the larger planters and all of the garden tools and bits and bobs from the greenhouse, hanging baskets etc.
i have already been asked to come to see what they have done with it all the next time I am over.
oh and I may somehow have come home with a few cuttings…. Oops forgot I should not have done that after Brexit…. How bad am I.
Marne la vallée, basically just outside Paris 🇫🇷, but definitely Scottish at heart.
