PREPARING

• Winter and spring-flowering bulbs are hitting now. (We will keep you posted on Instagram when they hit). Grab your favourites. If it is too early to plant, keep them in a cool, dark place. At least you will have them. 

• Prepare beds and pots for bulbs by adding a good helping of compost and blood & bone. Cover planted bulbs with a layer of mulch. Water bulbs deeply every 4 days or so, pots more often. Feed any summer flowering bulbs now as they will store this food for their year’s flowering.
• Keep watering beds and pots.  Soil is still dry after the heat. Not enough rain yet to sustain everything. Keep on top of the weeds so they don’t seed.
