Seasonal - Jobs in the garden for late Summer
During the months of August and September we should now be thinking of maintaining the colour we have in the garden to try and lengthen it's lifespan.
Jobs that can be done now include:-
Pruning Wisteria and Evergreens to keep in tip top condition
Dead heading flowers to encourage further flowers to bloom
Sow hardly annuals into borders and beds
Plant out quick growing vegetables - such as Peas, Salad Crops and Spinach
Lift and pot Strawberry runners
It is still not too late to add new plants into the garden, whether it be in pots or straight into the earth. Hydrangeas create a stunning floral display and return year after year.
