Spring time fast upon us

Now that we are into Spring its time to give your gardens and lawns a good balanced fertilizer, this is beneficial to help keep both strong and healthy throughout spring and also for the summer months. A good balanced fertilizer will also help promote new growth and flowers.

It is also worthwhile aerating your lawns this will allow for water penetration when the spring rains arrive, and will help prevent compaction during the warmer months. On smaller lawns the use of a pitch fork to aerate the ground is sufficient, but a larger motorised version may be a better option for larger lawns.

If you haven't already done so now is a good time to re mulch your garden beds, this will help retain moisture and help minimise weed growth. It is also a good opportunity to add a few extra plants now so as they can develop a reasonable root system before the summer time
