Jobs to do in the garden this month…

Divide herbaceous perennials, this ensures healthy plants and gives you more plants

Plant bare root roses

Rake up accumulated leaves on your lawn or brush them onto your borders

Plant spring flowering bulbs

Group potted plants together in a sheltered spot

Get Wallflowers in place now to enable them to get their roots down well before flowering

Top up ponds and bird baths regularly

Look after the birds; clean the feeders and keep them topped up

Prune climbing roses between now and February

Hard prune overgrown shrubs and hedges while they’re dormant

Insulate outdoor taps and prevent ponds from freezing

Wrap pots, stake plants and mulch

Prune open-grown apples and pears

Make sure the birds have access to fresh water

“Ben and the team at Hythe Garden Landscapes recently completely transformed our garden. We are beyond impressed with the whole experience, from start to finish. The team are friendly, professional and to be quite honest, were a joy to have here with us over the weeks that the project took to complete. Cannot recommend HGL enough, if you are considering them for your project you won’t be disappointed. Their attention to detail and standards of work are second to none.

We’re looking forward to having more work done with them in the future..”
