April gardeningTips for the changeable month
Protect fresh sowing or young seedlings from the wind and cold with a fleece cover Do not prune sensitive plants too early or too severely so that a late frost cannot penetrate deeply into the shoot tips A layer of mulch protects the soil in the bed from wind, cold and drying out Secure potted plants on terraces and balconies against strong gusts of wind Empty saucers that pots are sitting in immediately after heavy downpours and water when it is dry for longer periods
