After the poor weather through July and August summer planters, window boxes and hanging baskets are not looking their best. In fact they never really got a chance to shine this year and now as the days are getting shorter they are looking worst for wear. So now is a good time to freshen up those planters to brighten your patio or front door from now through to next spring.  Can you imagine your outdoor spaces filled with vibrant colours and striking foliage in the depths of winter? What if we told you that with the right plants, good compost, and a well-maintained planter, you can have a stunning display from September to March? Join us as we reveal the secrets to creating spectacular winter planters, including essential care tips and effective techniques to keep your hanging baskets looking their best during the colder months. In this fun and insightful chat, we also explore a range of plants and bulbs that can inject a burst of life into your outdoor spaces. You'll learn why deadheading and fertilising are crucial for your plant's health and how alpine plants like arabis, phlox, saxifrage and aubretia can add a pop of colour in spring. Plus, we discuss the benefits of versatile plants that can be uprooted and moved to another location for multiple uses.
