Get out there and go al fresco!
There’s still plenty of time to really enjoy your garden this summer. Gardens are for enjoying and the summer is the best time to do it.
So, make some time to sit back, relax and enjoy your garden this month from the comfort of your garden furniture.
Or entertain friends and family with a slap-up barbecue. If you plan to stay out late add some easy-to-install garden lighting too.
Make the most of summer
Make the most of the summer before the evenings start to draw in by investing in a new furniture set – perhaps you need something with more chairs and a bigger table or a large parasol to create extra shade? Or how about a swing seat or hammock to relax in?
Our member centres have everything you need and plenty of ideas to ensure you get the most enjoyment from your garden this summer – just ask, they’re happy to help.
Remember to pick up any care products you need, whether you prefer wooden or metal furniture.
Entertaining outside
If you are entertaining outside, don’t forget to keep your tubs and hanging baskets in good conditions with regular deadheading, feeding and watering.
Make sure your plants produce a display to be proud of by giving them just the right amount of water they need.
Well-established plants may not need regular watering but newly planted ones, bedding plants and plants in containers will need regular watering.
Lighting
Also, solar lights are so easy to install but make such a difference to the ambience of the garden.
Just ask any of our members’ friendly staff for advice on products that will make your watering quick and easy this summer.
