This is one of the borders that are in such a state... Its been fun watching stuff pop up, flower and then die back over the summer but they're in a real state and we need to think what we want to do with them longer term. Aside from the maintenance time they require, they're just too big for the garden and they really make the lawn feel small.
They're also doing quite a lot of damage to the lawn. With mum's help we trimmed the borders back to the retaining walls and discovered that they'd completely trashed the lawn underneath - the only thing growing was moss. I had some turf left over some work on the front garden so all the moss has come up and we'll see if the turf takes...
On the bright side, they do protect the greenhouse from stray footballs and our toddler!
