All
my winter containers are starting to look a bit tired so I’m deadhead daffodils
and narcissi and hyacinths and giving them a liquid feed. I’m not going to cut
back the leaves as the bulb needs the nutrients for next year and will just let
them die down.
I’ve
added a few extra spring bedding plants such as Violas and Dianthus as an
interim until I decide what colour theme I’m doing for summer. Check that your
container plants are not drying out as this warm weather will quickly affect
soil moisture levels, but please remember there’s still a chance of frosts so
make sure your new bedding is protected either by covering with fleece or putting
them in your greenhouse overnight.
