Today is the last day of the 12 days of Christmas! So before you recycle your Christmas tree why not snip a few handfuls tie in a bunch and stash in a sheltered spot! This will provide a home for insects- it's a tough time of year for everyone!

Do you have regular birds visiting your garden?
If so why not join in The big Garden Birdwatch, log who visits your garden at https://t.co/NKyvvO2Lqe between 25-27 January. There's a great guide to help you learn which feathered friends you have!
Stuck for gardening ideas?
Why not kick off the new year by adding some climbers! Make those bare fences, walls or borders a little more cheerful!
All climbers can be planted now so long as the ground isn't frozen!

Anyone for Rhubarb?
This time of year is fantastic to pot-plant rhubarb (who doesn't love a bit of rhubarb crumble!)
Simply fill a large pot (at least 40L) with compost and plant your rhubarb easy as that! A healthy rhubarb plant will produce for at least 10y- a great investment!
🌱❄️Winter Gardening Tip❄️🌱
Don’t skip your usual watering routine!
Watering before a predicted freeze can help plants, especially potted plants and annuals. It allows plants to take up moisture before the ground is frozen which prevents water from reaching the root zone.
🌱❄️Winter Gardening Tip!❄️🌱
Give outdoor container plants/plantpots extra protection. Cover with frost cloth or other heat retentive blankets and move pots and other containers close to the foundation of the house.
This will protect them from a hard frost!
***HAPPY NEW YEAR***
