Let's Get in the Garden this Month!

Getting out in the Garden and planting new plants and vegetables is a great way to spend the day this summer, providing the weather holds out.

It’s really easy to grow your own vegetables and herbs, or if you’re after something more colourful, hanging baskets are a great way to inject colour into your garden or onto your patio.

Many vegetables require the right weather and humidity to grow well, so it is best to plant certain seeds in particular months, to make sure you get the best result.

It's best to plant these vegetables in August: spring cabbages, cauliflowers, autumn and winter lettuces, onions, radishes, shallots, winter spinach and turnips.

Here are some useful hints and tips for gardening this August:

 

Happy Gardening!
