Here comes the sunshine and the showers, oh and the weeds!
April often provides us with the best conditions for flowers to burst into bloom.
A super time of year to get out into your garden. However be warned, as the flowers appear - so do the weeds.
According to the Royal Horticultural Society, the top ten jobs to get on with this month in the garden are as follows:
- Protect fruit blossom from late frosts
- Keep weeds under control
- Tie in climbing and rambling roses
- Sow hardy annuals, herbs and wild flower seed outdoors
- Start to feed citrus plants
- Increase the water given to houseplants
- Feed hungry shrubs and roses
- Sow new lawns or repair bare patches
- Prune fig trees
- Divide bamboos and waterlilies
For April 2021 we've chosen as tool of the month the Wolf Garten Multi-Change® Garden Scraper which is ideally suited to removing weeds and moss from between pavings.
