My rosemary is covered in pretty flowers.


The front garden was covered in violets.


This is my new super duper eco friendly lawnmower. I've always liked the idea of owning a push along lawnmower instead of an electric job but when I moved here I thought it would be too much work as the gardens are quite big.

I decided to do a bit of research to see what other people thought of them and was rather surprised to see so many people raving about them and saying they are just as easy to use as an electric or petrol mower. A lot of people said they were actually easier to use because you don't have to keep stopping to move the electric cable out the way and they're much lighter than a powered mower so easier to manoeuvre.

They're also a heck of a lot cheaper than a powered lawnmower.


It's so easy to use Levi was able to mow most of the lawn by himself. He really enjoyed doing it and I didn't have to worry about him electrocuting himself because there are no cables.


It's so small and light that when you've finished you can just hang it on a nail on the back of the shed door.


It took me ages to get a photo of Levi cutting the grass as he kept running away every time I went to take one.


It took us about half an hour to do the back garden because the grass was so long but now we've cleared the worst of it it shouldn't take much time at all to cut it.
