Winter Garden Care: Clearing the Way for Spring
January may seem like a quiet month for gardening, but it’s the perfect time to get ahead. A clean and tidy garden now prevents problems later and creates the perfect foundation for the growing season.
1. Why Clearing is Essential:
Winter debris can suffocate lawns, harbour pests, and promote mould. Removing it ensures your garden stays healthy and ready for new growth. A tidy garden also allows light and air to reach plants and soil.
2. How to Get Started:
- Gather tools like a rake, wheelbarrow, and gloves.
- Clear fallen leaves and branches from your lawn, flower beds, and pathways.
- Compost organic debris to recycle nutrients back into your garden.
3. Winter Lawn Protection:
- Avoid walking on frosty or soggy grass to prevent damage.
- Aerate waterlogged areas with a garden fork to improve drainage.
Get your garden ready for a flourishing spring!
