How To Wake Up Your Garden After The Winter Months
As we settle into the new year, thoughts of the coming spring can inspire feelings of both comfort and warmth. Whether you’re looking forward to a little bit of sunshine or you’re excited to get back out in the great outdoors, the oncoming season of renewal is bound to inspire feelings of hope and happiness.
If you’re eager to get ready for spring, then it may be time to wake up your garden in preparation for the warmer weather. Preparation for spring can begin as early as you like, where winter garden care can help you to enjoy your outdoor space even before the weather warms up. Read on for our top tips on how to revive your garden after the winter months.
Clear Leaves & Debris
One of the most important tasks when it comes to reviving your garden after a long winter is to clear your space of debris. Over autumn and winter your trees will have shed their leaves and some foliage may have withered away, leaving you with lots of green waste to clear. Tidying up and clearing out unwanted greenery can help you to see what space you have available for new spring planting.
Manage Your Compost
Compost bins are a vital resource for any garden, where these allow you to create your own nutrient rich soil reserves. The end of winter is the perfect time to turn your compost and integrate any mature composted material into your garden. This will act as a nutritious base for your next round of planting, in addition to helping you to weed and revive the look of your borders.
Plant Early Flowering Bulbs
Another exciting part of preparing for spring is that you can begin to plant some early flowering bulbs. These go into the ground when the weather is still cold, ready to provide your garden with its first burst of colour. Choose from crocuses, tulips, snowdrops and daffodils to add some guaranteed life to your flower beds.
Invest In Garden Furniture
Now is also the perfect time to invest in new garden furniture for your outside space. Old furniture may have become worn and tired over the winter months, where this can be replaced or repainted. Choosing lights, barbeque accessories and outdoor seating can also help you to get excited for the warmer weather.
