We can’t believe it’s June already! Before we know it, summer will be over and the winter chill will start to make an appearance, but for the mean time lets take advantage of the warmer weather and get in the garden. Here’s our jobs for June:

• Feed containers and hanging baskets every few weeks
• Add marginal plants such as lilies and iris around pond edges
• Cover developing and ripening fruit with netting to protect from birds
• Apply tomato feed regularly to fruiting veg, toms, courgettes and pumpkins
• Support tall growing perennials with sturdy canes
• Apply a feed, weed and moss kill to lawns
• Start harvesting early potatoes
• Prune spring flowering shrubs like forsythia and ribes

And enjoy the summer by relaxing and enjoying your garden and all the hard work you have put in this first half of the year.

We would love to see your photos of you garden so be sure to share them with us on social media! Facebook Twitter Instagram
