As we approach spring, the sunny days are a calling to you to get out into the garden. They bring the promise of spring and a glimpse of warmer days to come. Using this time of year to get plants in the ground is invaluable. It is the perfect time to be planting, allowing the plants to start establishing long before the hot and dry days of summer.
Plants planted now require less watering in the summer compared to if they were planted in three or four months time, allowing you more time to enjoy your outdoor space. The other benefit of planting now, before spring hits, is that you will get to enjoy the full display of spring blossom at home.
Planting spring flowering shrubs and trees now will fill your garden with flower in the coming spring months. If you have space for a tree, flowering cherries and crab apples and the very heralds of spring, thriving in well drained conditions in a nice open, sunny spot.
Before you plant
When making new planting decisions, it is important to choose a plant suitable for the area. Ask yourself, is it:
- Sunny or shady?
- Wet or dry?
- Sheltered or exposed?
Generally, plants are quite resilient things and want to survive wherever you put them, but considering these things first, will make the difference between just clinging on to life, and thriving.
