We've just moved into a new house with a pretty big garden and I'm a total novice (as is DP). Along each side (2 long flower beds) is what looks to me like a jungle of plants. I know these questions are probably ridiculous but:
- How do I find out what each one is, whether it is a "weed" or deliberately planted?
- How do I find out if any of the plants are poisonous and so I need to particularly watch the kids around them?
- What are the little blue pellets I keep finding dotted around? Slug pellets? How dangerous are these? So far, I've just been keeping the kids away from them and have told them not to pick them up. They're so dispersed that I'm not really sure I can get rid of them all. Will they eventually dissolve away, or do they last indefinitely?
I'd really appreciate any advice. Thank you very much for reading.
