I am new to lotties. The site I have used to be an unused area at the back of some garages that the council decided to turn over to allotments. I have on my patch a nice, fairly small (thigh high) broom or gorse bush, not sure which. I would like to keep this as I am keen to keep a natural balance as possible. And I think this probably would encourage the insects to the area. What is everyones opinion on this sort of thing. I wont let it grow too big in the future, and it does provide some nice colour in the early months of the year when not much else is flowering. I would just have to adapt the regimented oblong beds and paths that I am planning to fit around it.
Also what do you think about a wildlife pond on a plot. Not too deep or wide as my plot is a half plot. I thought a full one would be too much to take on considering all the digging and weeding that I will need to do this year.
