November is Here

As the frosts arrive, it’s time to prepare your garden for winter. Tidy up borders, clear fallen leaves, and protect tender plants with frost fleece or by moving them into sheltered spots. Wrap terracotta pots and insulate greenhouses with bubble wrap to prevent cracking.

Now’s the ideal time to plant roses, soft fruit, onions, and shallots all available in-store! It’s also perfect for winter pruning apples and pears we’ve got pruning saws, secateurs, winter wash, and tree sealant ready to go.

Don’t forget the wildlife! Keep your feeders topped up with high-energy seed, suet, and fat balls to help the birds through the colder months. Pop into Downham Home & Garden Store to explore our wide range of bird feeders and food.

We’ve got everything you need to care for your plants and wildlife and get your garden ready for November.
