AUTUMN IN CHECK: CHARLIE’S MUST-DO GUIDE
My favourite season, Autumn is a key time for getting busy in the garden.
To keep your Autumn In Check, I’ve prepared my ‘Autumn Check List’ to help you identify and successfully tackle the garden ‘must do’s’ that will require your attention throughout this transitional season.
Though the temperature is a little cooler, the soil remains warm, and plants are still growing.
This makes Autumn ideal for shaping plants, pruning branches and trees, fertilising your lawns and garden ahead of the dormant Winter period – as well as wood preparation to help keep you warm.
