How to Keep Your Garden Thriving as October Ends in the UK
As October draws to a close, UK gardeners should focus on preparing beds for winter and planning early spring colour. It’s time to clear fallen leaves, cut back faded perennials, and prune roses, wisteria, and climbing shrubs before frost sets in. Hardy bulbs like daffodils, tulips, and alliums can still be planted now for a vibrant spring display. Mulching borders and wrapping tender plants protect roots from cold snaps, ensuring gardens stay healthy through winter.
