Get out into your gardens
everyone! It’s Spring!!!
Now is the time for a thorough spring clean;
weed and dig over your borders
incorporating as much organic matter as
you can - Mulch bare soil once you have
done the work and remove moss and
weeds from paths, terraces and driveways..
If you are making a bed in the lawn, remove
the turf and stack it upside down
somewhere out of the way - after a year or
two it will rot down into fantastic compost.
Alternatively chop it up and bury upside
down in the planting hole a good spade’s
depth down. Clean and repair your garden
tools, book the lawn mower in for a service
here with Classic lawnmowers in front of
the carpark.. When it is warm enough, treat
sheds, fences and trellis with wood
preservative; brushes and rollers are fine
for most things, however a sprayer is well
worth buying for tricky projects such as
woven panels! Feed woody plants with
general purpose fertiliser - this applies to
roses, trees, climbers, hedges and
shrubs.Feed acid loving plants such as
camellias and rhododendrons with
ericaceous feed if you are on neutral or
alkaline soil. A dose of sequestered iron
also helps prevent the leaves turning
yellow.Mulch regularly with manure. This
can acidify the ground slightly.)Finish
pruning your roses and start spraying
them with fungicide to ward against
black spot and mildew

They will provide winter interest as well as some
much needed wildlife shelter - ladybirds especially
appreciate winter quarters and will repay your
hospitality by disposing of aphids in industrial
quantities next year. Leaving sodden debris and
fallen leaves around plants will only encourage pests
and disease. beds that lie bare in winter, carry on
with the winter digging until the soil is too hard - use
compost, manure, leaf mould - in fact as much
organic matter as you can lay your hands on to
replace the goodness in it. It can be left in a pretty
rough state over the winter when the elements will
break the clods down, making spring planting
infinitely easier!For text book soil improvement, you
should add a layer of organic matter and dig it in by
turning over spadefuls so it is buried below the
surface. If this seems too much like hard work, just
mulch the bed and leave the rest to the worms!
Fallen leaves prevent light and air getting to plants
and lawns and these dark, damp conditions are also
heaven on earth for slugs, snails and an
unwholesome array of fungal diseases. However,
don't waste these tumbled treasures - given time
they will decompose into fabulously rich leaf mould aka 'nature's soil conditioner of choice'! Rake them
up and throw into a simple frame made of chicken
wire or wood. Winter is tough for birds - as
temperatures fall, regular supplies of food and fresh
water become ever more important to help them
survive the cold months and emerge in good
condition for the breeding season next year.
