    No Mow May is back this year, bringing another boost of much-needed nectar to pollinators across gardens, parklands and verges as gardeners throughout the UK pledge not to mow their lawns for the month.;)

      I don't mow in any month, I haven't got lawns, I just let some wild flowers (weeds) grow away in odd corners of the garden all year round :biggrin:

        Well sorry, but if I didn't mow, I'd get lost in the resulting herbage, and so would the cats! Plus ticks, snakes and harvest mites proliferate in long grass here, so all in all, not a practical idea at all!
