Thanks, needed grass for my little one, bosch verticutter made the difference... early to buy but already got some 4x fatsia, asian wonder bamboo, robusta palm, Trachycarpus, mule palm, sikki and 2x ensete, cordy burgandy spire. Trying to get some big plants out the way. Then fill in the gaps. On my...

150, plan to spend 300 max. Only started exotic gardening late last yr. So a whole garden to fill!

Be aware, I just bought one from the supplied ebay link, and made an offer for 8.50 and was accepted

I am looking too, but have cordyline coral to my wanted list as it's meant to be very hardy but 2m max growth

Has anyone used gypsum into their heavy clay soils, does it work to loosen up the soil to take in more water easily?

The two colours is merely a trick of the light, the mowers roller bends the grass in one direction, then another as you Mow back up next to the previous line. therefore the sun reflects differently on the grass, brighter and darker.

Hi all, thanks for the warm welcome, yes a verticutter helped transform the grass. The far end of the membrane all the way to the far left will be decking cutting some of the path away... But the wide path was due to a disabled former owner and the slope of the actual ground from house to lawn...I d...
