Just wanted to say a very big thank you to all my lovely clients for being so understanding as my pregnancy has progressed, and to give notice that Gelder Gardening will be closed for business until at least February 2025 whilst little one makes his arrival and we settle in.

For those still looking for help with their gardens, we have partnered with the lovely Darren and Abi from DGF Gardening Services who still have some spaces available for work this summer.

Hope everyone has a fantastic sunny summer enjoying their gardens, and many thanks all round from myself and the young man 👶

An absolute classic, here is why English lavender is one of my favourites as a gardener:

🪻 It thrives in rubbish, low quality, low nutrient soil, PARTICULARLY clay which is what Hampshire is absolutely riddled with

🪻Bees love it, so if you have any fruiting plants in your garden this will help attract pollinators and increase your yields

🪻It’s incredibly hardy and will tolerate all kinds of harsh weather conditions

🪻It’s cheap as chips, always a bonus!

🪻It requires next to no maintenance. A run over with a hedge trimmer once a year to get rid of dead flower stems is more than sufficient. These will fall off anyway but it keeps lavenders looking tidy

🪻Unlike French lavender, the English variety is self-seeding. This means you can get away with sparse, cost-effective planting, and in a few years time you will have a flower bed brimming with pretty lavenders that smell brilliant as you walk past

It might be a classic, but it’s definitely a winner in my books! Get in touch with Gelder Gardening if you’d like lavenders planting or cared for

✂️ What a difference a bit of clean edging makes 🤩 you can see how long the edges of these stones had been covered with grass and moss by the colour changes in the “after” photo. Looking much neater and tidier now!

✂️ Get in touch with Gelder Gardening today if your patio edges could do with a bit of a tidy up before the sunshine arrives

🍃 Spring is on its way, and it’s time to get those hedges under control

🍃 Trimming back big hedges like this photinia not only controls their shape, but allows light and air flow to reach the plants and lawns below, improving the health of the hedge itself and all the plants around them

🍃 Get in touch with Gelder Gardening today if you’ve got some hedges that are due a nice haircut ✂️

🪻 A lovely update from this client’s garden! 1 month ago the ground here was covered in mountains of leaves, I kept myself warm one freezing Friday getting them all raked up and bagged ready for the tip

🪻 4 weeks later, these beautiful wild daffodils, snowdrops, and hyacinths have had a chance to grow through and flower 🥰
