I have to confess that I am not green fingered, but a certain someone in a high position here at Love My Vouchers has recently been enthusiastically updating us on the progress of his sunflowers. Keep this to yourselves as I will be in trouble for letting his secret out.
He has reminded me that this is the time of year when many of us turn our attention to the garden. Spring has most definitely sprung and before long, we will be inviting friends and family over for Pimms and charred burgers. If we are going to get the garden looking good enough, now is the time to put the effort in.
It is time to get shut of all of the weeds that have grown over the winter, trim the hedges, mow the lawn, plant flowers and replace your worn out garden furniture. Your flowers will be fully in bloom come the summer and your garden will be the perfect setting for those long summer evenings.
We are getting offers flooding in from our garden and outdoor furniture stores – here is a pick of the best.
