When is the best time of year to lay turf or plant trees and shrubs?

Spring and autumn are generally the best seasons, as conditions are mild and rainfall helps new turf and plants establish.

Does UK weather affect the success of turfing and planting projects?

Yes. Prolonged dry spells, waterlogging, or frost can affect results, so projects are timed to suit local conditions.

What maintenance is required to keep turf and planting beds looking healthy?

Newly laid turf needs regular watering at first. Planting beds benefit from weeding, mulching, and seasonal pruning. Ongoing lawn care such as mowing and feeding helps long-term.

How long will it take for my garden to establish and show results?

Turf will root in within weeks, but planting schemes may take one to three years to reach maturity.

Can you advise on plant choices that are low-maintenance?

Yes. We can recommend hardy, low-maintenance species that thrive in local soil and weather conditions, reducing the need for constant upkeep.
