Before and after. Always the best bit. 😄

This one was a proper job from the ground up.

10 ton of MOT Type 1, 8 ton of limestone chippings, grano dust base layer, 900x600 pavers on a full mortar bed grouted with Easy Joint stone grey, 38mm soft grass and Global Pure Grey sandstone pavers.

The kind of transformation that makes you want to sit outside with a brew and just... appreciate it. ☕

Big thanks to Ashcourt Group and West Building Supplies for the materials and the great service as always. 👏

A huge thank you to everyone who ordered a summer hanging basket this year. We completely sold out, which means the world to us. 🌸

Please take photos & video of your gorgeous baskets through the summer as we’ll be running a COMPETITION later in the summer - HINT: before & after photos will be a help!

If you missed out, or you’re already thinking ahead to later in the year, keep an eye on our page. Winter baskets will be coming soon and we don’t want you to miss out... again! 👀

Got a hedge that needs more than a trim? 🌿✂️

You know the one. The hedge that’s taken on a life of its own. The one you keep meaning to sort... but it just keeps growing.

That’s where we come in.

At CJ Gardens, hedge trimming is our middle name... because we know that a well-kept hedge doesn’t just look good, it makes your whole garden feel under control.

Whether it’s a quick tidy or a serious cut-back, we’ve got the tools (and the patience) to get it looking sharp again.

Ready to get that hedge sorted for good? Let’s talk. 👇

People ask me all the time what the secret is to baskets that stay full and flowering all summer.

Honest answer? Feeding. Consistently. With the right stuff.

Watering your baskets but not feeding them? You’re doing half the job.

Plants in baskets have nowhere else to go for their nutrients. What you give them is all they’ve got. Give them something good and they’ll reward you for months. Without it, the colour fades, the plants get tired, and by August they look nothing like they did in June.

I use basket feed and the results speak for themselves. I won’t use anything else.

Follow the feeding schedule on the bottle and don’t skip it when life gets busy.

Feed them. Water them. Deadhead them.

That’s the secret to baskets that go the distance 🌿

If you’ve got one of my baskets heading your way, this is my recommendation for keeping it looking its best all season.

Any questions just drop me a message, that’s what I’m here for 🌸

You woke before your alarm. Outside, something was happening. Loud. Layered. Not one voice — dozens.

That was the dawn chorus.

Male birds defend their territory with the most intense song in the thirty minutes before first light and the first hour after sunrise. The air is cool and still — sound carries further at dawn than at any other time of day. Each species enters at a slightly different moment, determined by how well it can see in low light. The robin sees earliest and begins first. The wren and blackcap wait for enough light before joining, and carry the chorus to full volume.

May is peak dawn chorus month in Britain — the window when every pair is established, eggs are being incubated, and every male is singing at maximum effort. By mid-June, as nesting moves into the feeding phase, the chorus begins to thin. The full window lasts four to six weeks.

Set your alarm ten minutes earlier tomorrow. Open a window. Stay still in the dark. 🐦
