If you have a box plant keep regularly checking for signs of the box tree caterpillar, which can completely strip a plant if left untreated. Signs to look out for are white webbing and dieback of foliage. Pick off any visible caterpillars and/or treat with a bug spray suitable for caterpillars. 🐛🐛🐛🌱🌱🌱

Growing your own garlic couldn’t be easier so rummage in your fridges and dig out any bulbs or cloves you have lying around 🧄🧄🧄

There's still time to plant garlic if you haven't got round to it yet. Divide each bulb into its constituent cloves and plant at least 2.5cm (1in) deep, 10-25cm (4-10in) apart depending on their size. Nothing could be easier! 🙂

I love productive days like this first clearing and weeding, then jet washing this overgrown space so that it is now returned to a tidy area to sit and relax 👩🏼‍🌾☀️☕️🌸
