I wish I could steel myself to leave the creeping buttercup and couch grass, but the mild weather over the last two months or so has encouraged them both to spread madly and they have come up through the roots/corms/rhizomes of other plants such as Echinops, Day Lilies and Iris.
The couch grass in the Day Lilies is particularly difficult to remove and it continues to come through year after TTyear.
I don't mind leaving ox eye daisies in places, as they are lovely to look at and easy to remove if necessary.

Great idea "tip toeing" around. I found my first snowdrop yesterday. Spring is coming.....
