I’m gearing up for the new gardening season and am starting to finally roll into my new client schedule. Today I was at a garden that was a complete shambles until I started on it, my client isn’t a gardener at all, it was all her late husbands and it really had gone to rack and ruin. Like most of my clients she’s very good and basically just lets me get on with gardening it how I want. I arrived today to a veritable feast of new plants that she’d been collecting over the past few months. Hotpokers, lupins, poppies, aquiliga, it was magnificant.<\/p>\n
I LOVE when clients buy new plants, its almost if I’ve done the shopping and they’re mine. I get to plant them, decide where they go and get paid to do it! Its a reason I love my job!<\/p>\n
Feb\/March is a perfect time to buy and get some new perrenial plants and summer flowering bulbs into the ground. Its warm enough for the roots to get growing on those sunny days but get to it quickly because the later you plant the less likely your little gem will have a chance to mature by its flowering season and you may have to wait until 2010 to see any real benefit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
