I also love the daisies in the lawn - we have to pick all ours because the dog eats them!
Does anyone know if you can buy seeds or how to, er, cultivate some of the wild ones from the garden? The only seeds I've seen are for the tall Ox Eye daisies, but I only want the little ones. I would love a pot full of them somewhere out of the dog's reach!Comment

I like them too and have them in my lawn... well, DID - unfortunately I chopped the heads of the three I had today whilst practicing with my new lawn mower; I haven't quite got the hang of it yet. they will come back though and I'll use scissors next time! I don't know if you can buy them as seed but I bet you can - I would look on the internet,Comment

Well Snadger, what is a lawn.Originally posted by Snadger View PostWhats a lawn?
I used to thimk it was a well tended, decent sized area of grass in close proximity to a house, or a public area used for recreation. Now it just seems to be any square yard of weed infested grass. Words change their meaning and time moves on.
I've had decent sized areas of grass in my gardens - but never had anything I would call a lawn - maybe that's just me.

We had some beautiful wild viola's but with the recent droughty conditions and regular cutting we appear to have lost them!Originally posted by BilboWagginsI refuse to cut the green stuff this week because the clover is in flower, sadly the white one not the red which is much preferred by bees, but nonetheless, mower is staying in the garage until the clover has gone over!
We've also got a good smattering of Speedwell but the thing I am happiest about are TWO (yes, shouting!) Common Spotted Orchid which flowered in late July last year. Wonderful things start to grow when you don't cut the grass . . .

OH got a new petrol fired lawn mower back in spring. It doesn't cut as low as the previous one, consequently if he doesn't want the lawn to look as if it's been hailing! He has to cut it every couple of days to get rid of the daisies!!!!! It's sending him daft!!!!!! I love them! If we used weed and feed we wouldn't have a lawn left!Mad Old Bat With Attitude.
