March

  • Prune your repeat-flowering roses and remove dead or frost damaged wood
  • If weather is mild, plant out hardy seedlings, new plants and any plants needing a move
  • If you have a pond, drain and replace about three-quarters of the water before any frog/toad spawn hatches
  • Dead-head any bulbs as they fade
  • Hard prune any old hedges
  • Give the garden a complete weeding and general digging-over where needed
  • Prune any fruit trees or bushes
  • To grow a herb garden, prepare a seed bed and sow as soon as posible
