Choosing a lawn mower

Lawn mowers can be expensive machines, so it is important to make the right choice when you are buying one. Your mower should last you for many years, so buying a good quality one from the start should prove to be an economical decision.

Manual or Powered Lawn Mowers

Manual mowers are available, however we have assumed that for most medium and large gardens, you will require a power mower. Even for small gardens, most people are likely to purchase a power mower, given the range of low cost mowers now available.

Petrol Lawn Mower or Electric Lawn Mower

The next decision will be whether to invest in a petrol or electric lawn mower. Of course, the major disadvantage of all electric gardening machines is that you will be followed around the garden by a length of electric cable making the further corners difficult to reach, and restricting you from wandering freely. Having said this, brands such as Castor and Qualcast have a range of good quality electric lawn mowers.

Mower Types

Having chosen what sort of power would suit you best, you then have the basic types of lawn mower, and the final decision will probably be determined by your garden.

The main types are: rotary, cylinder, hover, and a ride on mowers. These four types are considered in more depth in separate articles.

Rotary Lawn Mowers

The rotary lawn mower will suit almost all types of garden. Its horizontally spinning blade whilst not giving such a fine cut, does make it preferable for longer grass, and because of its high position, is better on an uneven garden.

Cylinder Lawn Mowers

The cylinder mower cuts the lawn with a scissor action. It consists of a spiral of blades set on a cylinder which cut against a fixed blade. This produces a very fine cut, and as a result can cut much closer to the ground. When combined with a heavy rear roller, your cylinder lawn mower will give you the light and dark stripes. Atco produce a range of Balmoral which will give you this highly polished finish to your garden.

Hover Mowers

Hover mowers, like rotaries have a horizontal blade. However, rather than sitting on wheels, they sit on a cushion of air. There are many lower cost hovers available suitable for small the small garden. However Allen produce an excellent range of hovers. Again, these mowers are good for uneven terrain.

Ride On Lawn Mowers

Finally, the ride on lawn mower. Normally reserved for the larger lawn, these machines make lawn mowing an effortless task. Whilst sometimes difficult to use in confined areas, they are essential for covering large expanses of lawn, quickly. They could also be combined with a smaller machine, or brush cutter, for tidying up the inaccessible corners afterwards.

Whilst ride on lawn mowers can be expensive, Increasingly there is a wider range giving them broader appeal.

Autumn gardening - October Greenhouse By now the cooler weather will be back with a bang, so I hope you used September to get your greenhouse ready to protect your tender plants.

Autumn gardening - Shrubs and trees Autumn tree and shrub care is one of the most enjoyable aspects of this time of year. The first thing to remember is that trees and shrubs often have their nutrients removed by use being too tidy

Autumn gardening - Preparing for Christmas If you haven't already planted prepared hyacinths in glasses in time for Christmas, try Narcissus papyraceus which will flower in under six weeks if potted in late November.

Garden Plants - Autumn Gardening - Dahlias Dahlias are at their best in August and September, when the rest of the garden is looking tired and the early summer flowers have 'gone over'.

Garden Plants - Autumn gardening - Herbaceous border The herbaceous border is the glory of the British garden form, and while it requires a lot of work, staggering the tasks can make it relatively labour free throughout a lot of the year.
