The plants in our Garden centres are enjoying the rain and sunny spells between showers. They’re putting on lots of growth and looking really good. Unfortunately the weeds like it too so our plant staff are having to work extra hard to keep the plant centres looking tidy and weed free. The trick is to keep on top of it by weeding little and often – In the garden you could use a hoe to skim the tops off newly emerging weeds to weaken them, a hoe also takes the back-ache out it. You can also put down soil improving compost or bark as a good thick mulch which will suppress weed growth, feed your plants and help conserve moisture.
