Sow hardy annuals, such as cerinthes, ammi, scabiosa and cornflowers, for flowers early next summer

Plant wallflowers, pansies, forget-me-nots and other spring bedding in pots and borders

Plant up containers for autumn interest, using cyclamen, heathers, heucheras and other colourful bedding plants

Bring any houseplants that you moved outside over summer back indoors, before temperatures start to drop

Fill any gaps with late-flowering perennials, such as sedums, to provide nectar for pollinating insects into autumn

Plant spring bulbs, including crocuses, daffodils, hyacinths, bluebells and snake's-head fritillaries in pots and borders
Take cuttings from fuchsias, salvias and pelargoniums

Trim conifer hedges to neaten them up and control height

Leave sunflower seedheads in place for birds to feed on

AUGUST LAWN CARE FROM VANESSA

This month we are busy cutting lawns in August and this is going to be a dry/wet month, so keep an eye on the weather forecast and don’t bother to cut your grass during dry periods as it won’t be growing strongly. If it does start to look untidy, message me to book in a cut.
If it gets hot and the grass turns brown, don’t bother to water it as it will soon turn green again once the rain returns.

Cosmos are easy flowers to grow and they look great in borders or meadows. Go for annuals like Cosmos bipinnatus or C. sulphureus, and choose single-flowered varieties like ‘Fizzy Pink’ to please pollinators. The seeds need light to germinate, so sow on top of seed compost in a tray, then prick out when large enough to handle.
