Southwark lists parks as an ecologically important space so don't understand the point. -
We have found 3 stag beetles in the old tree stump, and single nesting bees in the grass, so we're still not mowing it. I have taken the seeds head off the dart grass and trimmed the dead bluebells and it's alright. -
Back garden mowed on Monday, some of it for the first time this year. Not a lot of interest in this grassland, but hoping for the promised rain this week as it needs it. We use no tap water in the garden apart from conditioner tap water for the pond when rainwater storage runs out, very early this year. Purple clover, buttercups, rattle and ox eye daisies looking great in the front. Seeds sown did not germinate due to lack of spring rain. The meadow will be cut by hand when flowers die back, white clover will be out shortly and cutting the rest back may encourage the purple clover to flower again. Loads of bees Fun time is when the grasshoppers appear. -
Just found a link for LB Southwark wildlife and ecology. Suggest all those listing in disgust to read some of this. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/culture-and-sport/parks-and-open-spaces/ecology-and-wildlife
