Jobs for March

The past week we have started to give our lawns their first cut of the year. Nothing too drastic. Just taking the tips off.

We have started to dead head hydrangeas as well.

Now all the bulbs and herbaceous plants have just about showed themselves, we are forking over the beds and incorporating some organic matter. After a long winter the borders are quite compact and heavy to work. We add heavy horse manure when forking over, which breaks up the soil, gives the plants a good feed and will lock in water for the summer months ahead.

Next week we will be giving our tired looking lawns a spring lawn treatment, which will feed them and kill off the majority of weeds and moss.

Of course Naturescape Gardens Ltd offer all garden services in the North London area

Happy gardening !
