Many years ago I planted a pampas grass because I liked the flowers (sigh, no, not that). Trouble is, the leaves are like kitchen knives and it grew very, very big, and I was getting sliced too often. So I dug it out, it was huge, and I broke the spade getting it out. For a few years this great lump of a root ball sat on the patio, covered to stop it regrowing. At last today I cleared it and reclaimed the patio. It’s now a really nice mulch, and there’s lots of it. 🥳 #gardening
