Summer is slowly coming to an end, you can start preparing your garden for the beginning of autumn. You can find out everything you need to do here.
Just before the beginning of autumn there is a lot to do in the garden again. For example, you can sow new lawns. September is ideal for this because the summer drought is over and the seeds can germinate quickly. But there are other things you should have done in the garden before fall.
Protect garden pond from leaves
The trees lose their leaves depending on the weather. If you have a pond in your garden, you should protect it from falling leaves, as otherwise they will accumulate with sludge.
Planting bulbs deep
It's also the right time to get flower bulbs into the ground before the frost. You should therefore plant the bulbs twice as deep as they are high. This way the ground frost cannot penetrate the bulb as quickly.
Share faded plants
At the end of summer, many perennials have slowly faded. You can divide or cut back the perennials during this time. This makes it easier to propagate and distribute the perennials in the garden.
Collect Seeds
When the plants wither that cannot be propagated by division, you should pay attention to the seeds and collect them of course. With these seeds you can propagate the plants just as easily. Unfortunately, not all bred species can be re-bred in this way.
