Preparing for the Seasons Ahead
October is one of the most important months in the gardening calendar, offering the opportunity to prepare for winter while planning for spring. Tidying borders, clearing fallen leaves and cutting back spent plants can help keep gardens healthy and looking their best throughout the colder months.
It’s also an excellent time to improve beds and borders with compost or organic matter, helping to enrich the soil ahead of next year’s growing season. A little time spent in the garden now can make a big difference when warmer weather returns and new growth begins to emerge.
