Tips for May

May has arrived so here are a few jobs and tips to keep your garden looking it's best.

Spring is in full swing; however, the temperature is still low so there are certain things we've got to be careful with.

• Keep care of your lawn and mow regularly - at least once a week.
• Start seeding a range of vegetables indoors, including lettuces, onions, carrots and sprouts.
• Plant up herbs in a pot or planter on your patio to use when your BBQ is in full swing!
• Tender plants still need protection so leave potting and hanging baskets until a little later in the month when the weather hopefully heats up. You don't want these to be taken by the late frosts.
• Keep on top of the watering. Even though it is still cold, the ground is quite dry.
• Continue to trim, tidy and enjoy your garden!
