    I'd be very careful of the vinca as @CarolineL says. Whilst the v major is the worst, the v minor will also spread rapidly. Are you keeping all of the lawn shown in your photo ? If so, there isn't a lot of space left for plants. Either way, violets, ferns, spring bulbs may be worth considering.

    FBB Fertiliser - can't believe the price

    Today 4kg of FBB was delivered for £4.00! I'm pretty sure the price was wrong, it's now gone up to £8.99.Well done Westland for honouring the mistake, not that they had an option I think.
