With all the rain this autumn we are having a problem with wet leaves trampled in on the the surface of the hard path on Mayfields North. They are rapidly turning into organic mud and can't be removed with a leaf blower or the battery rotary mower we use to pick up and shred leaves in a drier autumn. We have resorted to scraping them off with a wire lawn rake which works but is slow. Does anyone have any better ideas please?

We cut back beginning October, but some re-sprouted and have flowered again. Do we do another cut? The frost has now largely killed them - should we rake up?
You could cut now but prob best to do an early spring cut (April). As for raking off the frost killed plants that’s a tricky one, pros & cons to both. Have you read Pam Lewis-how to make a wildflower meadow? There is no real right and wrong way-can be a bit of a balancing act!
Thanks- I'll look out for it!
It looks great. Well done.
