Tips for your garden in<br />

<strong>March</strong><br />

By Kate Lines<br />

Spring usually arrives by mid-<br />

<strong>March</strong> and the frequent sunny<br />

days provide the opportunity for<br />

an increasing range of gardening<br />

tasks.<br />

It’s time to get busy preparing seed beds, sowing<br />

seed, cutting back winter shrubs and generally<br />

tidying up around the garden.<br />

Frosts can still be a hazard, so keep vulnerable<br />

plants protected at night if frost is forecast. <strong>March</strong><br />

winds are also notorious for their ferocity so<br />

check exposed plants are well supported.<br />

Gardening Spring Clean<br />

Now is the time for a thorough spring clean; weed<br />

and dig over your borders incorporating as much<br />

organic matter as you can - those chilly winds will<br />

really help to dry out the soil. Mulch bare soil once<br />

you have done the work and remove moss and<br />

weeds from paths, terraces and driveways. They<br />

may be boring tasks but if you don’t get on top of<br />

the garden now (especially the weeds!) it will be a<br />

nightmare for the rest of the season.<br />
