Garden maintenance in the fall:
winter is coming

Garden maintenance in November and December is obviously aimed at protecting your plants and garden furniture from winter. In addition, now is also the right time to do some small or large jobs that you would otherwise not get around to. Do you need help or advice on maintenance and landscaping? Then call in time a gardener in, then you garden will also look like new in the new year.

Just as quickly into the ground

Have you planted the spring bulbs yet? These should go into the ground now, so you will have snowdrops and crocuses early next year. This is also the ideal time to plant hedges and deciduous trees. Do this before the first night frost, so they have a chance to take root. Want some color in the garden even in winter? Then quickly plant some evergreen winter flowers and plants with decorative berries.

Fences and seating areas

Fences should be replaced in November and December. Then in the spring, sow and plant some nice climbers against them so that in the summer you look at a nicely overgrown fence. Clean and dry your garden furniture carefully. Put them in storage. Or make a quick roof for seating? With a barbecue or a fire basket, you can then sit outside comfortably even in winter.

Preparing for frost

Put potted plants in a frost-free area if it starts to freeze. Set out fleece, bubble wrap and newspapers to protect your plants from frost and snow. Wrap large pots to prevent them from bursting in frost. Protect evergreen plants with fleece and try to keep frost-prone plants out of the wind as much as possible.

What are you doing for Christmas?

Do you hang a few lights in the garden during the dark days, or go all out with galloping reindeer and flashing lights? Create a garden design with a lighting plan and see how you can make it as stylish and energy efficient as possible. Maybe you’ll create a new garden trend and all your neighbors will soon join in!
