Derek writes: This is the second year for this initiative, where you leave your grassy areas and don’t cut them for 4 weeks and see what happens.
You may discover that all sorts of wildflowers come up and you like the look or not as the case may be so you immediately cut it and get it back to a green space.
In the Churchyard I leave various ares to July when the grass is then strimmed off and cut regularly for the rest of the season. Please see some of the wilder Churchyard areas.
However I am tempted to try this approach at the front of the School next year. I will keep you posted.
