Gardening Service

[Paul Lupton]

A very happy new gardening year everyone. Get the best out of your garden this year by starting early.

I know its a bit nippy momentarily, but here's some of the work you can be doing now (or I can help you with. Strike now while plants are mostly dormant and whilst gardeners are in their quieter period) -

Cutting back: any herbaceous perennials from last year

Pruning: rambling roses, apple/pear trees, Boston Ivy/Virginia Creeper and wisteria (at the end of January.

Tidy: lawns/patios/paths of leaves, tree debris etc.

Digging: flower/vegetable beds (improves the soil.)

Lawns - repair bumps/hollows - give a light trim if too long (not when very cold/freezing.) Winter feed.

Planting - Deciduous hedging/trees or moving them

Fixing: Fences, pergola's etc whilst vegetation is dormant.
