Tidying up your garden
After a summer of enjoying our gardens, where do we begin with the garden clean up? Our step-by-step guide can help get you started…
Step 1 - protect your plants
Prune and deadhead your summer blooms, to help make room for your autumn bulbs to come through. This is the time to start planting next year’s spring bulbs too. Any plants that thrive better in warmer weather, move into a cold frame or greenhouse. And place any delicate flowers in a spot with some wind cover.
Step 2 - trim your trees
Step 3 - love your lawn
Give your lawn a final mow before winter really kicks in. Use a rake or leaf blower to remove any fallen leaves or debris first, and a grass trimmer to neaten up the edges. Make sure you clean your equipment before storing it away, so it’s in tip-top condition for next year.
Step 4 - freshen up your furniture
Before you pack away or cover up your garden furniture, give them a thorough clean with a pressure washer. Why not wash your bikes and garden toys too? On a dry day, give your wooden structures a final coat of wood stain or paint, to protect them through the winter weather.
Don't forget to mulch
Recycle your garden waste
Don’t let all your garden trimmings go to waste – leaves, weeds, grass cuttings and twigs can be shredded and mulched into compost. Then use this to line your flower beds to protect them from frost.
Storage ideas for your garden
Store in a shed
Whether they’re wooden, metal or plastic, sheds offer sturdy storage. Pick the right size and style to suit your outdoor space, and tuck away essential garden tools, seasonal toys or furniture you don’t want weathered.
Grow in greenhouses
There are a lot of plants that need warmer weather to thrive. With a huge selection of greenhouses to suit any sized garden or plant collection, you can keep your blooms safe.
Hidden hacks
If you have a smaller space, then opt for a storage box or bench. You can hide away those everyday garden tools or accessories, whilst they subtly blend in as extra garden seating.
Don't forget your garage.
Line your walls with practical shelving, hang helpful hooks or opt for stackable storage boxes. It’s a great place to organise your tools and accessories, keeping your garden clear.
