November: Autumn is here!

Hi,

As the autumn leaves fall, and the garden starts to slumber, our attention turns to preparing for winter in UK gardens, and the upcoming Christmas celebrations.

Before the winter weather arrives, there are several gardening jobs that you can undertake that have a big impact on the garden. One task is to start protecting your borderline hardy plants. My blog on this topic highlights the options available to help you with this important task.

I’ve written a handy guide on how to remove tree roots and stumps. The guide tells you why you need to do this, and the options on what to do.

Within my plant recommendations for November are ten of my favourite blooms. There are some absolutely stunning flowers to behold in November, so have a read to see my selections.

For more helpful gardening advice and my handy tips, visit my website and YouTube channel.

Happy gardening!

David

Gardening tip of the month

Stock up bird feeders

Now is the time to help our native birds by stocking up your bird feeders. As food becomes more scarce, providing birds with some additional food sources, you’ll be doing your bit to help them thrive.

Blue tits feeding

Provide the birds with unsalted peanuts, oil-rich bird seed, and/or suet fat balls. And remember to provide them with fresh, clean water too. Look after the birds and they will help you with unwanted garden pests.
