The May Edition: Your Month in the Garden
May is a vibrant month in the garden. From planting summer favourites to harvesting early crops, explore stories to help your garden thrive in late spring.
Welcome to The May Edition, a hand-picked collection of expert features, all designed to help you make the most of your garden’s most abundant season. Late spring is bringing warmer days, and with it, flourishing borders and rapid growth across the garden. After all those hard months of planning and preparation, everything is finally beginning to burst forth with life and color.
Gardening in May is all about nurturing new growth.

If you planned ahead, you may also be harvesting early crops, supporting climbing plants, and encouraging healthy blooms that will carry the garden beautifully into summer.
