And save the long black skirt for a Halloween party?

if you cut it, you will get grassy knees; if you leave it you will get a grassy skirt. But if you have concrete/stone etc, it will provide a modicum of protection.

I say leave, and put on a pair of trousers...

walk away from the scissors and shears, grab a long cool drink and test out your garden furniture.
