    to spike your grass you should use a pointed piece of rod either wood or metal. breakup the top soils surface (scarify)..it sounds like your garden just needs a good rake

    If anyone is interested in rabbit shavings for their composters please let me know as it supposedly makes brilliant compost. I also have a compost bin full of compost if anyone is interested cos I cant use it all each year lol.

    You can visit your local flower shop they will advise you on the right bulbs to plant, or there is many garden web sites on the internet that offer good garden tips.
