But I have got it up to scratch now with daily watering, pruning and weeding once in a while, putting down ant powder and slug pellets. I planted up 12 containers and added 20 flowers into the borders and this really helped. Petunias are good – with sun and water they spread far with lots of bright flowers = easy maintenance.
Sorting out even just a part of your garden is worth doing as having a nice place to look at/sit in/retreat to whilst he weather is good makes a difference. And there’s a certain amount of pride to be had in admiring your green fingers.
