Step 1: Prepare the Area
Before you start, clear the area of weeds, rocks, and debris. Ensure the soil is well-drained.
Step 2: Calculate the Amount
To determine how much bark chippings you need, measure the length and width of the area to be covered and multiply them together. We recommend a depth of 5-7.5cm (2-3 inches) for optimal coverage.
Step 3: Apply the Chippings
Spread the bark chippings evenly across the area, ensuring consistent coverage. Use a rake to distribute them uniformly and avoid piling them too

Ideal for growing in a conservatory or glasshouse, the sarniensis hybrids have a wider colour range than the hardier species, and typically their flowers appear before their leaves, on a tall, elegant steam.
In 1752, Britain changed its calendar from the old “Julian” style to the Gregorian version that most of Europe was already using. People rioted, demanding back the 11 days of their lives that had gone “missing” in the switchover, but there would be far-reaching effects too.
