Prepare Your Garden for Winter and a Colourful Spring

As you prepare your garden for autumn and winter, you may come across some tree seedlings, especially sycamore, ash, and oak, sprouting in your borders. Rather than letting these young trees end up in the compost heap, consider giving them a new lease on life by participating in the GardenAdvice Young Gardeners Tree Project as a tree donor..

As autumn gives way to winter, it’s the perfect time to focus on the care and maintenance of your fruit trees and bushes. Proper pruning during the colder months is essential for the health and productivity of your garden. At GardenAdvice, we offer a comprehensiveAutumn -Winter Fruit Tree Pruning Service, designed to help you get the most out of your fruit trees and bushes.

As the crisp air of autumn approaches, it’s the perfect time to take advantage of nature’s generosity by expanding your garden without spending a penny. During this season, many common garden plants and shrubs enter a stage of growth that makes them ideal for propagation. By taking semi-hardwood stem cuttings, you can easily root a variety of plants, such as weigela, hydrangea, and daphne.

Slugs are a common garden pest, notorious for wreaking havoc on plants and crops. They leave unsightly trails of slime and damage leaves, stems, and roots, which can significantly reduce garden yields. Traditional chemical pesticides can be harmful to the environment, beneficial insects, and even pets. However, a natural and effective alternative exists in the form of nematodes, specifically Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita, which offer an eco-friendly solution to slug control. Understanding Nematodes
