How To Sustainably Recycle Your Garden Waste

On the 18^th March, the world acknowledges an important day…Global Recycling Day! A day dedicated to supporting our planet by recycling and reusing materials to help protect and preserve our environments.

Spring always brings a sense of anticipation and excitement – the start of something new and fresh possibilities! When it comes to your garden or landscaping project, now is the best time to begin planning and prepping for those big, bright and standout ideas. 

Right now, the UK is experiencing some rather glorious hot and sunny weather. Although this is great for family BBQs and summer garden parties, prolonged hot temperatures can significantly impact our lawn’s health and appearance without the right care and attention.

Transforming your garden with a lush, green lawn is easier than you might think. Turf rolls offer a quick and effective solution to achieve that perfect, carpet-like finish in your outdoor space. These pre-grown strips of grass are expertly cultivated and carefully harvested, ensuring that your lawn looks vibrant and healthy from day one. 

Since the 1930s, we have witnessed a dramatic decline in our wildflower meadows, with nearly 97% lost to urbanisation, agricultural practices, and other land-use changes. This loss has had significant ecological repercussions, diminishing habitats for a wide range of wildlife and reducing biodiversity.

There’s something about a bowling lawn that is charismatically British. From its short, neat cut to its rich green colour, it visually represents British summer! But not all lawns look like this. So, what makes bowls turf different? Is there a particular type of bowling green turf? And how do you maintain the perfect bowling green? 

When it’s time to revamp your lawn, where do you begin? You’ve chosen your high quality turf, but how many rolls do you need to complete the project? Gardens come in various shapes and sizes, so there’s no one-size-fits-all formula.  

As spring arrives and your garden starts to wake up, now is the time to give your lawn a little lift. And how do we do that? By scarifying! Gardeners favour this traditional lawn care task for its easy process and proven results, which deliver a healthier, brighter and long-lasting lawn.

Garden lawns are exposed to a lot of wear and tear, especially during the summer months: kids playing, pets sunbathing, family BBQs, and get-togethers with friends. And that’s before we mention the lawn care of mowing, edging, and de-weeding. It goes through a lot!  

Weed control can be frustrating and time-consuming. It also feels never-ending – they’re everywhere! Although some weeds may look harmless, they can cause serious trouble for your healthy grass. If not dealt with effectively, they can completely take over your beautiful lawn. But how do you remove lawn weeds without damaging your turf?
