How to get your garden ready for summer
Tidy everything up
The summer comes with an amazing sunshine, and you want to get things in order before then. You can get rid of any weeds in the garden, prune a few branches here and there and generally keep things organized. To add nutrients and retain moisture in the soil, you can throw in some mulch. Remember, summer is going to be very hot so you probably need all the moisture you can retain in the soil.
Work on your landscape
Summer is time for outdoor fun, so you want to make the outdoors look as interesting as possible. Apart from mowing the lawn and trimming the glass, you could throw in a fountain, some swing sets for the kids and wind chimes for general aesthetics. Don’t crowd your space but make sure that there is everything you will need when the time comes for fun. Be sure to keep the available space as safe as possible for people.
Plan in advance
When you are planning on getting your garden ready for summer you should always make sure that you have a plan in mind. There is no point just rushing in and planting things here and there. You need to decide what is going where and when you need to plant it. Some plants need time to bed in and others might need the weather to be a bit warmer to thrive. It’s all about knowing what your plants and garden need. If you would like help with designing your garden then hiring a professional gardener is the thing to do. You could ask a few local gardeners to provide some quotes.

Do some planting
Summer is a time for color and fragrance for all of us. Get the garden ready and plant flowers that add to the splendor of everything around you. Keep in mind that some plants won’t grow at this time, so you have to choose what goes into the soil. Gardenias, roses and jasmines are a great point to start. You will need to tend to them all the time in order to get the right effect when summer comes. Avoid mixing plants that do not do well together at all times.
