Bev,
This makes sense as far as mosses and lawns go in my case. I refuse to
waste my time,energy and money, trying to grow a lush lawn, only to mowe
hours on end each week, so moss is welcome and encouraged. But the
perennial beds are fertilized, ammended and the plants grow very well, so I
don't think low fertility is a problem there (but maybe???). Is the moss so
happy with the neglect I provide my lawn, that its just running wild into
other areas?
