The Gated Garden - Monthly Maintenance

  • Feed bulbs and bedding plants with organic pelletised fertilizer.
  • Do not cut back frosted plants until the weather becomes warmer.
  • Trim, reshape and cut away woody growth from summer flowering creepers.
  • Make sure that plants under eaves have received sufficient water after rain.
  • Check all plant and tree ties and loosen or replace where necessary.
  • Mow lawn every two weeks.
  • Mulch all garden beds as well as around trees and shrubs to retain moisture and protect roots from frost.
