Our British Garden Centres are now full of Spring flowering bulbs, but have you ever wondered where they come from? 🌷

We LOVE Mulching and it’s a really easy gardening job to get done in Autumn that is going to have huge benefits to your garden in the long run 🤩

Here’s how to mulch:
🌱Choose your mulch & get as much as your budget will allow. Choose from Farmyard Manure, Soil Improver, Bark chippings or Garden compost
🌱Weed the soil where you are going to apply your mulch
🌱Shovel on your chosen mulch to your beds and borders around your plants without smothering them or damaging lower leaves. A 5cm minimum layer of mulch will work best to suppress weeds.
🌱Use a rake to level out your mulch and distribute it evenly.

September kicks off the start of Autumn and there is so much to get out and do in your garden this month! 🤩
So here are three gardening jobs you can do now:

🌷Plant Spring flowering bulbs! Fill your pots and borders with bulbs like daffodils, hyacinths & crocus to ensure a colourful display next Spring.
🥔 Lift maincrop potatoes, dry, and store in a cool, dark, ventilated place.
🌿Lift, divide, and replant clumps of perennials.

Conifers are often underrated but here is why we LOVE them:

🌿They are evergreen & are the perfect plants for year round structure.
🌿They aren’t just green! You can find a range of conifers in different colours from blue, silver, and gold.
🌿There is a different size conifer for every garden from dwarf to large specimen varieties.
🌿They can have different functions in your garden from hedges to focal points as topiary.

🌦️Learn about your local climate and how exposed your garden is.
📐Measure your border and decide on its shape & size.
🌸Choose a garden style - cottage garden? Formal planting? A garden for wildlife?
🌱Research & shortlist your border plants. Don’t forget to consider seasonal interest, colours, foliage and flower, and amount of maintenance.
🌷Decide on the positions of these plants in your garden to work out how many plants you’ll need.

Yesterday we volunteered our time to support St. Andrew's Hospice Grimsby to lend a green-fingered hand to help revitalise the hospice’s grounds and Greenfingers’ pirate-themed garden ☀️

Our team weeded, pruned, chopped and tidied to help to maintain the magical garden that offers a safe & therapeutic escape for children with life-limiting illnesses and their families.

A huge thank you to the team at St Andrew’s Hospice & Greenfingers for welcoming us and we hope we were able to make a difference in such a cherished space 🌱
