EMBRACE THE SUNNIER MONTHS WITH PRETTY CONTAINER PLANTS
AFTER hosting winter displays and spring bulbs, now’s the time for summer colour in my pots.
That's been my job this week and I like using terracotta pots because they complement most types of planting.
They can dry out quickly so require a commitment to keeping them well watered throughout the warmer months. I’ve emptied the old compost around the garden beds and I am using a good-quality multipurpose compost that will support my choice of plants.
This combined with fortnightly liquid feeding and deadheading should ensure lots of flowers to enjoy over the next few months.
As we are well past any fear of frost, there are plenty of plants that will thrive now.
Tender bedding plants can be used and you may have been growing your own from seed which might be pot ready now.
