Plants & gardening

I've had to trim down the edges of the lawn far too often because kikuyu grass keeps trying to reach out onto the walkway. I've tried a mild concentration of weed killer, but that didn't take out all of them, so I used salt instead of a weed killer concentrate. That was effective, to say the least. That, however, left a rather messy patch of soil with dead kikuyu grass and other grasses that end up being a source of muddiness every now and then.

I keep forgetting to use the same technique to handle the driveway and the rear of the house, since grasses from the neighbors keep seeping through.

We once had a large passionfruit growth, but had to cut it down because the new vines crept over the old vines and made everything stoop over and fall, which was rather bad. We couldn't keep it up to shape, so we were rather content with the decision. I plan to plant passionfruit again when we get the landscaping sorted.

I'm planning to get a nice plant in my room so I can tend to it. I'm thinking a small pot with mint!
