Spring gardening tips and plant care for a vibrant season
Gardeners are advised to replace early blooming varieties with irises and other spring plants, water beds regularly, and apply quick fertilisers. Dahlia clumps should be divided and replanted, japonese chrysanthemums divided, and now is a good month to set young rooted plants for a strong autumn display. Plant bowing stems with ample roots, pinch tips, and sow new annuals to extend flowering through late spring to autumn. Also cover bare soil, transplant hedges and trees carefully, and maintain regular watering. Additionally, cultivate South African flowering plants like gerberas and arctotis hybrids, and prepare vegetables such as lettuce, cucumbers, radishes, and beans for a fruitful season.
