🌱Spring

• Spring - late · Outdoors

  Feed with slow release fertiliser

  Apply a general purpose slow release fertiliser, spreading it around the root area of the plant as it is coming into growth. (Or apply a liquid feed at regular intervals throughout the growing season.)

  This is a simple way to provide a nutrient boost as a single annual procedure.

• Spring-Autumn · Outdoors

  Water in dry periods

  Established plants in the ground can cope with 7-10 days of dryness, and shrubs often manage 2 to 3 weeks. Water one section of the garden thoroughly each day rather than a little everywhere. Check plants in pots more often, especially in hot weather.

• Spring - mid-late · Planting

  Trim the plant

  Trim the plant to give it a general tidy. This includes removing any lengthy or awkward shoots that make the plant look visually less attractive. Remove any spent flower heads at the same time.
