As summer approaches, many of us have been busy tending to our gardens during the spring months, ensuring they’re vibrant and inviting when the sun shines bright. But what should you truly invest in to make your garden a paradise? With countless products and brands available, it can be overwhelming to choose. That’s why we’ve compiled a guide on the top garden must haves that will elevate your outdoor space!
Go Green: The Heart of Your Garden
What’s a garden without greenery? Adding plants not only enhances the aesthetic but also contributes to a healthier environment. If you’ve always dreamt of creating a small allotment, now’s the time to make it happen! Online retailers like Primrose and Woodshed offer a treasure trove of gardening supplies. Primrose boasts over 10,000 carefully curated outdoor living products, while Woodshed specialises in high-quality wooden items like the Triple Layer Tiered Planter. This season, consider planting Elsanta strawberries, a 3ft Lakemont grape vine, and a Scented Climbing Plant Collection featuring jasmine and honeysuckle for stunning displays!
Keep It Clean: Maintenance Matters
While gardens are perfect for gathering with family and friends, they can quickly become cluttered. Regular maintenance is key to preserving your garden’s beauty and preventing unwelcome pests. A pressure washer is a fantastic investment for keeping your outdoor space pristine. It effectively removes dirt and grime from your decking or patio, transforming your garden into a clean and inviting area in no time. Trust us, a little upkeep goes a long way!
Invite Nature: Create a Wildlife Haven
Bringing nature into your garden is not only visually pleasing but also beneficial for the ecosystem. Consider investing in bird feeders or a complete feeding station. Henry Bell, a reputable British family-run business, offers high-quality wild bird feeds and accessories. Their Four Arm Complete Feeding Station from the Essentials Range looks luxurious and comes at an affordable price. It includes four feeder hooks, a seed tray, and a water bath. For the perfect bird feed blend, try Henry Bell’s No Mess Mix, Mealworms, and Superior Sunflower & Peanut Suet Bites—ideal for attracting a variety of feathered friends.
Rest and Recuperate: Create a Cosy Seating Area
To truly enjoy your garden, a comfortable seating area is essential. Whether you splurge on a stylish rattan sofa set or opt for a cosy swing seat, having a designated relaxation spot is a must. Wooden wing seats are durable but require maintenance, while textoline fabric seats are easier to clean and weather-resistant. If you want to kick back in style, consider adding a hammock—just don’t forget the hammock stands!
Get Some Shade: Stay Protected from the Sun
Protecting yourself from the sun’s UV rays is crucial, especially during the warmer months. A garden parasol is a fantastic addition, providing shade and privacy while you lounge. The Henley Crank and Tilt Parasol is one of the most popular garden must haves, allowing you to adjust its position throughout the day to ensure you stay cool and comfortable.
Conclusion: Your Garden Awaits
And there you have it—our top garden must haves for creating a flourishing outdoor space this summer! From planting and cleaning to inviting wildlife and enjoying some relaxation under the shade, these key elements will help transform your garden into a serene retreat.
Until next time.
