my garden is a lawn consisting mostly of dandelions, some paving full of weeds, gravel likewise, some bamboo covered in bindweed, and A MOTHERFUCKING PALM TREE.
and an awesome shed.

bindweed is a bugger to clear
but FUCK a palm tree! We have head-height nettles and no grass.

yeah i am going to buy a shit load of weedkiller i think, for bindweed and paving/gravel, and i have started DIGGING UP about 1/3 of the lawn for a VEGETABLE bed
i say vegetables - i'm thinking runner beans, spinach, chard, and probably SWEET PEAS.

also my dad is cultivating about 6 herb cuttings for me to have in big pots on the paving.

YEAH GARDENING i like gardening.

yay!
Peas are good to plant along with sweetpeas because the blackfly are kept away by the sweetpea smell and you don't get flies on your eating peas. And eating peas right from the pod is so nyom. Potatoes are easy to grow too, and strawberries. My ma's giving me a load of herbs and a few strawberry runners.
