First go at pruning my pampas grass today ... not touched by me since I started living here 😔
Doubt it was touched in the previous 10 years or more, either 🤔😳
I found it prunes very nicely with the electric hedge trimmer but it produces a fearful amount of litter ... admittedly low density litter but a *lot*
So tried the #MontyDon method of spreading it round the lawn & attacking it with the lawn mower. It is grass, after all 💡 💡
No more clippings than a long cut 😎

Last night we were watching #MyDreamFarm on the Roku Channel's "Gardening With Monty Don"and saw an episode that isn't available on Prime Video
.
(Also, did all y'all know there was a 24/7 #MontyDon channel on
Roku? It's all kinds of awesome and inspiring.)
Winding down watching #MontyDon on iView, Adriatic gardens. He is in Venice.
Perfect calm show after a crazy day 😌
6 years ago our episode of Big Dreams Small Spaces aired.
A few weeks before we finished filming we were in the kitchen with Monty. He was showing me some photos from a recent filming trip.
“Can I photograph your hands?”
“Erm, yes.”
His hands tell a story of his gardening and hard work. They are muscular and ingrained with soil.
He is a very nice chap. And a wonderful storyteller.

If Monty hosted Pimp My Ride:
