GARDEN ACTION PLAN – WINTER INTO SPRING – PRUNE, CLEAR, PREPARE, MULCH, PROTECT & MORE
Welcome to Adam’s Gardening Guides.
As we move through Winter it’s time to prepare the garden for Spring and the Summer months ahead.
In this video I’ll show you what I’ve been up to in my garden …. from clearing borders of last summer’s flowering perennials to pruning clematis, mulching and wildlife care, plus sharing some of my favourite winter interest plants along the way.
