Keeping weeds under control can seem like a never-ending task. Get on top of this task as early as possible, pull out any pesky weeds from your soil and lawn, and be sure to get all the weeds that have sprouted between paving slabs and cracks in the patio.

A fresh-looking lawn is a vital part of any garden but can be tricky to maintain. Weeds, moss, and dead patches are common problems that can make our green spaces look unkept and unhappy. Begin with a neat trim of the grass, getting rid of any weeds and a good soaking (unless the rain has done that for you!) to revitalise the rooting systems.

Your flower beds will most likely have gathered a collection of dead leaves and foliage throughout the winter. Remove any dead leaves and rubbish, neaten up the edges with a trim and refresh with some new soil.

Summertime is the perfect time to activate your green fingers! There are a variety of refreshing greens and veggies that can be planted in the run-up to the warmer weather, just in time for your first summer BBQ!

Use this opportunity to also plant a selection of flowers suited for the season.  This will help add some colour to your garden, attract wildlife and brighten up the overall mood. Sunflowers, foxgloves, lavender, cosmos… the choices are endless!

Throughout the colder months, the shed can become a place to store odd bits and can quickly turn into a stockpile of junk. Remove all the items from your shed and sort the items into piles of relevance.  Once sorted, give the shed a good scrub and clean and place the kept items back inside neatly and organised.

The winter weather can often take its toll on your garden fences. A fresh lick of paint will revitalise the look of your fences and is guaranteed to boost the overall appearance of your garden. You may want to also consider adding a fence treatment to help prolong the quality and presentation of your garden fences.
