March is the cusp of the gardening year â the last chance to plant bare-rooted shrubs and feast on chard and Brussels sprouts, just as the signs of new life push their way to the surface of beds and borders. Most gardeners find it hard to sit down this month, even if they have time.
It s such an exciting moment in time. Plans made during long dark evenings start to be put into action to create a beautiful and productive garden. Our efforts now to tend the soil, prune, sow seed, move old plants and import new ones will be repaid.
