best lawn mower large garden image
Lorraine C
Old Harry lawnmower struggling. Need to get a new one. I have been advised to get a self propelled one as they are easier and one with a large grass collecting box.
Which one do I buy? Where do I buy to get a really good deal?
We have a large garden. Also would love one that you do not have to pull start - just push a button but I think these are really expensive.
Answer
The Toro recycler and super recycler are highly rated lawn mowers. Cost is $350 to $500 and they cut nearly as good as the $800 Hondas do.
Don't worry about electric start. These start easily on first pull.

Who has decorative wood chips as a lawn?
Our lawn mower broke, we can't afford to get another one right now. Our grass never really took so it's not a beautiful lawn anyway... So I was thinking of taking all the grass out and laying decorative wood chips down. Do they stay or would they blow away in the wind?
Answer
I put down cedar mulch. . .supposed to be better and not float away when it rains. I put down plastic that absorbed water and then tons of cedar chips. Now years later the cedar mulch has broken down into compost and everything is growing on top of the plastic. I'm switching to lava rocks and stone walkways and a good deal more cement. If you have a large yard, it will take a fortune to put down chips thick enough to stop the grass from growing through. It is the plastic that really helps with that. Look for a used lawnmower or if your yard is small, use your weedeater. I'm slowly adding beds and getting rid of grass. I want a huge garden. . flower garden. . .I also have a huge veggie garden. I'm slowly making islands of plants surrounded by mulched walks that will become stone (cement) walking paths. I have less grass every year and bigger gardens. And love it.
Almost forgot the down side. . .bugs, termites and lots of $.
