Welcome to the latest  news and tips from the garden maintenace team.  Winter seems to be never ending at the moment and I think everyone is now in need of warm weather and some sunshine, including our gardens.  

Anyway here at Harrington Porter we are looking forward to the year ahead and below we have listed  a few things to do during the month of February in order to help prepare your garden for what hopefully will be a lovely long hot summer.

  • Prune any summer flowering shrubs
  • Tie in wall trained fruit trees and bushes
  • Finish pruning fruit trees
  • Dig any unworked vacant ground
  • Keep off lawns in frosty weather 
  • Ensure that the mower is serviced
  • Spike lawns to aid drainage
  • Provide food and water for garden birds
  • Prune back your Wisteria

 

This year we are trying to encourage more of our clients to think about their gardens earlier in the year, so any maintenance work booked in during February will get a 20% discount on the labour costs.   If you have any questions that you want answered by our maintenance team please get in contact and I’m sure we will be able to help you out.
