🌱 Spring Garden Tips

Spring is all about recovery, growth and setting your garden up for success after winter. As temperatures rise, lawns begin to wake up and plants start pushing out new growth.

Top tips for spring:

• Start mowing little and often to avoid stressing the lawn.

• Tidy borders and remove any winter debris hiding new growth.

• Light pruning helps shrubs grow back fuller and healthier.

• Keep an eye on weeds early — dealing with them now saves a lot of work later.

• Water newly planted areas if rainfall is low.

Spring is the foundation season. What you do now directly affects how your garden looks all summer.

☀️ Summer Garden Tips

Summer is about maintenance and protection. Growth is fast, lawns dry quicker, and plants need a bit more support.

Top tips for summer:

• Mow regularly, but don’t cut too short during hot spells.

• Water early morning or late evening for best results.

• Keep on top of weeding before it takes over borders.

• Light pruning keeps shrubs neat without stressing them.

• Sweep patios and paths to stop dirt staining in dry weather.

Consistency is key in summer. Small regular care keeps the garden looking sharp without big corrective work later.

🍂 Autumn Garden Tips

Autumn is a reset season — preparing your garden for winter while keeping it tidy as leaves fall and growth slows.

Top tips for autumn:

• Clear leaves regularly to protect lawns and prevent rot.

• Trim back tired plants and remove dead growth.

• Final lawn cuts should be slightly higher.

• Tidy borders ready for winter dormancy.

• Start protecting plants sensitive to frost.

What you clear and prepare in autumn makes a huge difference to how easy spring is later on.

❄️ Winter Garden Tips

Winter is about protection and prevention rather than growth. Even though the garden looks quiet, it still needs care.

Top tips for winter:

• Remove fallen leaves from lawns and paths to prevent slipping and damage.

• Avoid walking on frosty grass where possible.

• Protect vulnerable plants from hard frost.

• Keep paths clear of moss and algae for safety.

• Plan any improvements so you’re ready for spring.

A well-looked-after winter garden restarts faster and healthier when spring arrives.
