what survivors plants are

well im sure we can all agree after the weather we have had our little plants keep growing on , in my garden they have the added peril of my hubby and his mower , so far hestook the top off my newl planted rhubarb , blueberries and a few strawberries have fallen victim not to mention the flowers , but they soldier on im glad to say is there any one in your house thinks that the grass is the only thing that matters in the garden  :lol: :lol: :lol:

My OH reluctantly takes a turn at grass cutting and simply zooms everywhere without heed to where fruit and veg plants might be. I had to actually fence off my poor rhubarb that kept getting a short haircut for a while  :( Same with some new irises that I was told looked like weeds  >:(

Yes, I have the same problem. Far as he's concerned, anything that doesn't look like concrete is fair game.

Oh yus :(
OH and his grass. Left up to me I would have raised beds interlinked with paths!

And the GBH of the 'earhole I get if have been unwise enough to pot on seedlings while sitting on his grass and spilling some soil on it. :(

Mine has just discovered the joys of crocosmia and wants it all around his garden!

It's only taken me the best part of 5 years to get him interested in gardening like I've become, unfortunately I'm about to divorce him!!  Shame he couldn't have come to his senses earlier ::)

That's a bit drastic isn't it if he doesn't like gardening,or are you being serious? :ohmy:
