What to do in your garden in March

Spring is slow in coming as compared to last year – when a warm February meant an early start in the garden. The snowdrops have been magnificent, but as we move into March, the ground is still cold and wet in most places, and the only gardening taking place is under cover! Don’t panic and be tempted to rush into sowing and planting outdoors just because the seed packets say so. Wait until the conditions are right. A slightly later sowing in the right conditions will be much more successful.
