APRIL JOBS TO DO


Water any new plants that you buy from the garden centres. They are usually quite dry when you get them home. Water them again well when it is time to put them into pots or the garden.

Even if it has rained, water newly planted fruit trees, roses and shrubs regularly to help their root systems establish.

Now that the growing season has started the weeds will try and win the race to take over their environment. Hoe borders once a week to prevent weed seedlings establishing. Any plants with tap roots such as dandelions should be totally dug out or they will come back to haunt you in summer

Horticultural.
