Here are five simple tips to boost your garden’s beauty and keep it thriving, perfect for UK gardeners aiming for a lush, low-maintenance paradise.
1. Plan for Year-Round Colour
British weather can be unpredictable, so choose plants that shine in every season. Think winter-flowering heathers, spring tulips, summer lavender, and autumnal acers. Mix perennials and evergreens for constant appeal. Visit Gardenis.co.uk plant seedling category for some cheap plants to grow on and plant in your garden.
2. Prioritise Soil Health
Great gardens start with great soil. Test your soil’s pH and enrich it with organic compost or well-rotted manure. Healthy soil supports stronger plants and better blooms. Check our range of composters so you can easily make your own nutrient rich compost.
3. Embrace Low-Maintenance Natives
Native plants like foxgloves and hollyhocks thrive in the British climate, needing less water and care. They also attract pollinators, boosting biodiversity.
4. Use Smart Watering Techniques
Save time and water with a rainwater butt kit. Water early in the morning to reduce evaporation and keep plants hydrated. Water butts are available in the water butt section, in a range of sizes.
5. Add Structure with Hardscaping
Paths, trellises, or a cosy seating area add charm and function. Use natural stone or recycled materials for a sustainable touch. Gravels, pebbles and slates are available in the landscaping section.
