Lawn Care

A thick, green lawn is the backdrop to the whole garden, and most problems come down to a few basics: watering, feeding, mowing and good timing. This section covers practical lawn care for UK gardens, beginning with how in-ground sprinkler systems work and whether one suits your lawn. As the section grows, it will include guidance on mowers, trimmers, scarifying, aerating and feeding, so you can keep grass healthy through dry summers and wet winters alike. Each article explains the reasons behind the advice, helping you make sensible choices for your own soil, climate and lawn size.
