December

At this time of year the garden starts to hibernate and the gardening world fall into two tribes. Those who spend the next 2 months out of the garden, and those that spend this time preparing, pruning, planning, dividing and planting. My business and I fall squarely into the latter, while those that fall into the former will spend from February to November trying, in vein, to keep on top of all that needs to be done while regretting all the missed oppertunties to improve their garden.

I’m often asked how best to maintain and developing a garden and the answer is simple. Do all you can while you have the chance because the garden and nature waits for no man.
