Top Tips this February for your Garden

• Were your winter/spring bulbs correctly placed last year? Now is the time to move them about if not! Once your Snowdrops have started to die back, it is time to lift and divide the bulbs if you would like to place them in different areas of your garden ready for next year.
• It’s getting warmer, slowly but surely! So, now is the time to dust off the mower, change the oil and sharpen the blade ready for your lawns first cut in March!
• It might be a good idea to prepare your new vegetable seed beds if you haven’t already done so.

Plant Focus

Helleborus Lenten rose are a fabulous winter and spring flowering plant which are thankfully quite low maintenance during this time of year. They will no doubt be bringing a bit of life to the garden by displaying a variety of different colours this February. Have you considered planting up in your garden this spring for some added life during the winter next year?
