Expert shares key to having a lush garden - and it involves leaving your weeds be

When learning to take care of our gardens there's one thing we're always taught - weeds are bad for your lawn. When weeds appear, they compete for air and steal water and nutrients from other plants.

Many gardeners spend a considerable amount of time trying to get rid of, and cursing, the opportunistic wild plants - essentially going to war against them.
