WE presumed not cutting the verges and roundabouts in Redditch had been planned.

My wife and I and others have been praising the council for delaying the cutting over the past few weeks.

Anyone with an appreciative eye would have seen how lovely the borders looked, with the abundance of buttercups, daisies and wild flowers.

The planting around Redditch is so beautiful throughout the seasons, giving much credit to the council, parks and gardens.

Many congratulations.
