MOVING EVERGREENS


Lots of berries for the birds

MOVING EVERGREEN SHRUBS
If you are moving evergreen shrubs from one place to another in the garden check that the roots are wet. If not soak them thoroughly a few days before they are to be transplanted. Newly planted or transplanted evergreens, including hedges, should be regularly watered.

TRIM HEDGES
Prune back by 6-9in any weak, first-season hedging plants of beech, hornbeam, hawthorn and privet to ensure a dense, bushy hedge. Complete any trimming of evergreen hedges and topiary. Hedges trimmed in late summer may require the trimming of subsequent whiskers.

Get those bulbs in: Finish planting spring bulbs.
