Remember November!

November to gardeners should be a month where you reflect on all your hard labours of the year and contemplate the changes and additions for the coming year. However this doesn't mean that there's no work to be done. With the plants now entering into their dormant period, it is the ideal time to relocate or add in new trees, shrubs and roses to the garden. The soil should still have enough heat left in it to help get them established and ready for the coming season. The herbaceous borders should also be receiving their final tidy of the year. The last of the dying back foliage can be cut back and plant supports can be removed to be cleaned, ready for next year.Once you've done this, the border will hugely benefit from a mulch top dressing, which will help to protect the slightly more tender plant over the winter and decompose, (brake down), to add some vital nutrients into the soil ready for spring.
Here at Mayshade we try to make sure that we have the plants you'll need for any situation, as even at this time of year we hold a superb selection of trees, shrubs, roses, soft fruit and much more. If we don't currently have what you require in stock, we will be more than happy to try and source it for you.
Happy gardening..!
