As winter begins to ease, gardeners often feel the pull toward planning, planting, and refreshing their outdoor spaces. Early spring is an ideal time to focus on the essentials, carry out important maintenance, and set strong foundations for the growing season ahead. A little care now can make a remarkable difference once warmer days arrive.
Winter may feel like a quiet season in the garden, yet there is still plenty you can do to protect plants, encourage strong growth, and prepare for the year ahead. With a few simple steps, you can help your garden cope with cold conditions and emerge in excellent shape when spring arrives.
With Christmas just over 5 weeks away, you may be wondering what needs doing in the garden. The answer is that there are still plenty of jobs that can be done.
Nights are drawing in and getting much cooler but the days are still quite mild. Winter is definitely on its way but there are still plenty of jobs that can be done in your gardens to prepare them for their sleep through the dark months ahead.
The intense heat of summer has passed giving way to sometimes warm days but cooler nights and misty, dewy mornings and it is time to start thinking about preparing the garden for autumn and ultimately winter.
We exhibited some of the finest specimen plantsat the Royal Horticultral Society’s Chelsea Flower Show. Awarding winning, Susan Long Sculpture, specially selected a wide range of plants that were displayed alongside her stunning pieces and we were all delighted with the result. The exhibit was awarded Five Gold Stars.
We were delighted to be involved in the bronze medal winning show garden Xardin Garden: Journey of Life. The show was full of incredible quality, and we thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the spectacle.
