We hope that those from all across the world interested in the world of garden maintenance will stand to learn a little something from our Aylesbury based providers of a myriad of garden services.
7 Garden Maintenance Tips from the Pros
- The best times for watering plants is early in the morning or in the evening.
- Another key aspect of quality garden maintenance is avoiding watering leaves and plant heads; this prevents mould forming, and general damage due to pressurised impact.
- Aylesbury residents should use around 10 to 15 litres of water per square meter when watering their lawns. Keep in mind lawn care is part of the package of garden services offered by Lewis Turf and Fencing.
- Plant bedded flowers close together to minimise the space available for weeds.
- Mulch will prevent weeds from forming.
- When de-weeding – an essential part of garden maintenance – target the roots with a special weeding trowel. This will prevent them re-emerging.
- In the heat of summer, keep your lawn fairly long (at least 5cm) to protect it from the sun and stop soil drying out.
