Seasonal Tips

 

SPRING HAS SPRUNG .....

"To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow" 

Spring gardening in cool and temperate climates is so rewarding especially if you...

• have trees, shrubs and ornamentals to plant.  Prepare the holes by digging them a little bigger than the root ball or pot and add some matured compost and slow release fertilizer. Water well.
• maintain your hedges with a good clip when there is no chance of a frost
  
• plant summer picking veggies
• take some cuttings of your favourite plants and multiply your stock of seedlings 
• set up a watering system ready for the drier months
• plant summer flowering annuals
• deadhead perennials and annuals as the blooms fade to encourage more
• feed your roses regularly with rose food and water well
