Spring is the perfect time to rejuvenate your garden and prepare your outdoor space for the warmer months ahead. Whether you are looking to enhance your existing garden, introduce new planting schemes, or tackle a larger landscaping project, there are plenty of ways to revitalise your landscape in Devon this season.
Devon’s Winters can be tough on gardens, leaving soil compacted and plants needing a refresh.
Start by clearing debris, aerating your lawn, and adding compost to flower beds.
Check for winter damage on hard landscaping features like patios, decking, and fences.
Devon’s mild climate makes it ideal for early planting. Consider hardy perennials like Primroses, Hellebores, and early flowering shrubs to bring colour back to your landscape.
Now is the time to plant summer bulbs like Lilies, Dahlias and Alliums for a show-stopping garden later in the year.
Spring is an excellent time to refresh patios, pathways, and terraces before they become the heart of summer gatherings.
Replacing tired decking, installing new paving, or adding natural stone elements can completely transform your garden.
Consider drought-resistant plants and mulching to reduce maintenance in the hotter months ahead. Installing a smart irrigation system can help maintain a lush garden without daily watering. These don’t have to be expensive and provide peace of mind in hot periods.
Creating defined zones with porcelain paving, gravel pathways, or raised beds adds structure and ease of upkeep.
Wildlife-friendly planting is becoming more popular, supporting local bees, butterflies, and birds.
Permeable surfaces help with drainage, reducing runoff and protecting the environment.
Incorporating reclaimed materials into garden structures aligns with sustainable landscaping trends in Devon.
Spring is the ideal time to start landscaping in Devon, whether you’re planning a full garden transformation or just making a few seasonal updates. With longer days and improved weather, now is the time to create a garden that thrives throughout the year.
