{Things to do} THIS MONTH /July


Make a START on NEXT YEAR'S garden
-
Start sowing seeds of biennials such as foxgloves, honesty, wallflowers and sweet williams to flower next spring. Either direct or in seed trays for pricking out and growing on to plant out in the garden in early autumn.
-
There’s still time to take soft-wood cuttings from perennials and shrubs like hydrangeas, geraniums and penstemons. I’ll often buy a ‘mother’ plant to take cutting material from at this time of year.
