So have I...my OH was waiting very patiently for his big daisy flowers to bloom and I have just pulled them all out as part of my weeding activity. Apparently I chopped them down early last year which was why I though they were just rubbish. I can only hope a couple of the roots have missed my administrations. I like cutting things down, for firewood and clearance purposes, much needed in our relatively new garden (got it last year-hence not knowing what was in it). I have been banned from cutting anymore as the shredder (OH) cannot keep up with my activity and I am also prone to getting tired after the chopping and leaving a bit of mess around (saws and pruners now hidden). I got round him by taking him to a poultry sale, buying too much for him and now he is making chook houses so he has other things to think about  ;D ;D

An old Gardener friend once told me never to cut anything out/back/down until I'd watched it grow for a year, and then only after checking the books he gave us. ::)  Our garden always looked like a wilderness as a result!
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

Yep with that one but.... We had a jungle and something had to go/give - And I have hands so won ;D ;DAnyhow not convinced by Oh that they really are big daisy jobs - but difficult to argue when he teaches Biology  ::)
