As winter comes to an end, your garden is preparing for a new season of growth. Warmer temperatures, longer days, and increased rainfall can quickly bring plants, lawns, and weeds back to life.

Spring is the perfect time to give your garden some extra attention and get ahead of the growing season. A little preparation now can help keep your garden healthier, easier to manage, and looking its best throughout spring and summer.

Give Your Lawn a Spring Boost

Spring is a great time to assess your lawn for weeds, bare patches, compaction, and poor growth. Fertilising, aerating, or renovating your lawn can encourage healthy growth and improve its overall appearance.

Refresh Garden Beds

Remove weeds, clear away winter debris, and refresh garden beds with a quality mulch. Mulching helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect your soil as temperatures rise.

Prune and Shape Plants

Remove dead or damaged growth and tidy overgrown shrubs and hedges. Pruning can encourage healthy new growth and keep plants looking neat, but always consider the individual plant’s flowering and pruning requirements.

Check Your Irrigation

Before the warmer weather arrives, check your irrigation for blocked sprinklers, leaks, and uneven coverage. Adjust your watering schedule to suit changing seasonal conditions.

Stay Ahead of Weeds and Pests

Spring encourages both plant growth and unwanted visitors. Regularly check your garden for weeds, pests, and signs of disease. Addressing problems early can prevent them from becoming bigger issues.

Plant for Spring and Summer

Add colour and interest with plants suited to your garden’s conditions. Choose species based on available sunlight, soil, drainage, and water requirements for the best results.
