November
The winter starts to bite and frosts are more likely.
By now you should have brought your tender plants inside or covered them in fleece.
This month while you are out and about, colourful berries and stems will catch your eye, you should think about planting some in the garden for winter colour.
Time to start chasing fallen leaves about the garden, don’t put them in the green bin use them as a mulch or bag them and allow the leaves to breakdown into leaf mould or compost
This is a good time to plan and change your garden, while the plants are dormant, you can dig them up and move them.
Buy some food for the birds and give them some fresh water.
Make your garden a feeding station, you can then bird watch from the comfort of your house
