What Should I Do These Days In My Garden?
Posted on 26. Nov, 2009 by admin in Gardening Articles
I live in north London and have a small 20×20 garden – square shaped with beds on the edges. On part of these beds I put in daffodil and tulip bulbs last year and they are just starting to come up. I would like to have a pretty garden with flowers through out the year. I’d also like an apple tree to see apple blossoms – is it too late to plant one? This is my first house and first garden so I’m clue less.
How do I go about doing this – any help would be greatly appreciated.
Clear debris and dead plants ,don’t try to dig the borders till they dry out.don’t plant border plants till end of may a late frost will kill them An apple tree can be planted now try to find one grown in a container, have you thought about a flowering cherry?.Find out what flowers when in your area and plant accordingly ask around for a good garden centre they will be happy to give advice Gardiner’s are a friendly bunch as soon as you venture into your garden you will get plenty advice.one last thing a bird table gives endless interest. Good luck

Dreaming of spring, triggering an itch to get out of the house and into the garden. But while you are fighting a full-blown case of cabin fever, plant explorers and outdoor décor vendors are turning up a whole slew of new green goods Read more at http://www.todays-family.net/house-garden/spring-garden.html
Firstly I would ask what pH is your soil and get that checked out. Also i think you should be ok with an apple tree right about now but don’t leave it too late leaving it for more than another month and i would recommend leaving it till later this year.. you see trees should only be moved during their dormancy period, between Oct – Feb, I would also recommend planning out your gardening around such a tree as they can make great focal points in the garden. So thought and consideration is important in the garden before purchasing any plant or tree therefore.
its not too late to plant apple trees they they are selling them now in garden shops
London, England?
i think you should ask other local gardeners, greenhouses, nu series & horticulture clubs. join a gardening club, if you have the time. people are always very open and happy to talk about their hobbies and shared interestes with others!
It’s never too late to plant a tree. May not flower though.
