Landscaping project in Bracknell
Bracknell – landscaping. A rather untidy area had been landscaped.
Two patches rotovated and manure incorporated
Another half where trampoline is going – weed suppressing membrane and filled with plum slates.

Wildlife included a bumblebee hive which caused a bit of trouble and had to be moved.
All that area was just too wild so the idea was to clear it up
Before and after photos below.
Front garden in Lower Earley. Cotoneaster along the brick wall taken over by some wild roses, brambles and other thorny foes
Hedge work: Few of cotoneasters had to be removed ( right hand side ), some had been given a chance to survive..
Back garden in the same house.
Another cotoneaster in an awful state. Covered in weeds, brambles etc.. Customers wished for it to be removed and site cleared for a fruit tree.
Residents complained about that tree which has outgrown its space in this tiny front terraced house garden.
Tree reduction done
Two stripes of turf at the front after they have been damaged by the builders heavy trucks had to be removed, soil added, levelled and reseeded.
You probably wouldn’t believe the amount of moss that scarification pulls out. Have a look at one of the pictures which shows a compost heap which was empty before we started.
This compact moss/debris is really heavy so if you are planning to
scarify yourself then I hope you are a real grafter !
