Nothing ruins your pristine lawn like weeds can. Even though some types, such as dandelions and white clover, are particularly loved by bees, other types can be detrimental to the health and wellbeing of your flowerbeds. However, rather than going straight for the weedkiller, which contains highly toxic chemicals, why not try something a bit more natural? Here are a few techniques to try before you go for the strong stuff.

Bees are quickly becoming an endangered species in the UK, and they are a vital part of our eco-system. Since 1900, the UK has lost 13 species of bee, and there are 35 more that are classed to be on the brink of extinction. By welcoming bees into your garden, you are helping to preserve the eco-systems that keep our planet running and protect the little pollinators in the process!

It can be hard to know what plants are safe to put in your garden when you’re a pet owner, especially if you have cats and dogs.

We have compiled a list of ten pet safe plants for your garden, so that you can spruce up your space, whilst protecting your pup!

When it comes to summer, it can be hard to entertain outside when you aren’t happy with your outdoor space. Spending time in your garden is a good way to get out of the house, even when you have nothing you need to do! To help you, we have compiled a list of 4 ways to jazz up your garden, which has everything you need to switch your garden from bland to brilliant, with very little effort!

It’s a simple project that will require little upkeep and will fill your garden to the brim with colour and wildlife.
