We are well into the gardening year now with all the last
daffodils finishing and the herbaceous borders starting to come into their own.
1.Spliting
of autumn flowering perennials such as Aster, Helianthus, Hosta.

2.This is
the time to start the pricking out of seedlings and hardening them off , best
in a cold frame. Remember slugs and voles love young seedlings.
3.All the
wooden garden furniture needs to be checked to make sure it is safe. Then it needs to be properly treated to
stay out all summer.
4.Annual
climbers want to be hardened off and planted in large pots on tripods ready to
go out in mid to late June (Lathyrus matucana, Dolichos Ruby Moon, Ipomaeae to
name a few)
