Hi All,
I'm thinking of redesigning my small front garden - we just moved in 6 months ago so I've been working mostly on the back garden till now.
It's a bit messy with a Wiegelia bush in the middle, a couple of hydrangeas and some assorted hostas, delphiniums etc. I laid some bark chippings down over it to tidy it up and it looked lovely for a couple of weeks,then, a mat of growth started to poke through and within a week or so, you couldn't see the bark. It's actually quite pretty, covered with little white and blue flowers, but just not my plan.
I thought I might make the front garden my herb and salad garden - but my car is parked on a drive right next door and so I worried that the exhaust fumes wouldn't be very good for edibles? What does everyone think?
