Gardeners urged to ‘start thinking about autumn’ as key job looms

The summer period is an exciting time for gardeners as they get to nurture their plants while enjoying the fullness of the summer harvests. As we draw closer to the season and the weather continues to get warmer, there are a number of gardening jobs that are important to get done this month.

Early preparation is always a good idea when it comes to gardening, as it allows you to ensure that your garden remains thriving and healthy, even in the more challenging periods. Summer is the perfect time to prep for the coming seasons, and while it might seem relatively early to do this one job, you will certainly thank yourself later for it.

Country Living, a lifestyle and home magazine, has put together a list of gardening jobs that should be done this month. One of the recommended tasks is to sow.

It reads: “It’s hard to fathom, but in a few months, autumn will be here, so consider sowing some of those autumn plants, such as pansies and polyanthus. Simply sow seeds onto a tray of fine compost, water and cover lightly.

“Then place in your greenhouse. Check tray regularly to ensure germination has occurred, and don’t let seedlings dry-out.”

Planting autumn plants in the summer comes with a number of benefits. It allows the plants to establish their roots in warm soil, before it cools down in the following seasons.

Additionally, it gives them more than enough time to do this before the first frost and any harsh cold conditions.

Sowing seeds in summer’s warm and moist conditions is a huge advantage, as it provides the ultimate environment for your plants to develop and grow. This will result in a strong start for your autumn blooms and help them thrive throughout the season.

Pansies and polyanthus, as recommended by Country Living, are popular and great options thanks to their ability to add stunning colour during the cooler months.

So next time you’re doing a garden shop, get your hands on autumn-flowering plants, to make sure your garden doesn’t lose its spring and summer fullness.
