Things to do in November

Leaves are falling as is the daily temperatures and the long nights are here leaving us with less time to work our cherished gardens. That said, there’s lots to do.

Jobs to do:

• Clean out pots

• Check nesting boxes are clean and food for the birds is available

• Inspect tools, sharpen, mowers may need to wait until next month

• Winter prune established fruit trees

• Protect your tender plants

• renovate and tidy hedging

• Ensure tree supports are stable

• Start looking to order summer plants (plan two seasons ahead)

• Enjoy a will organised firework display
