🌿 With the UK experiencing a mini heatwave, here are a few simple ways to help your garden cope with the heat:
💦 Water early in the morning or later in the evening to reduce evaporation and give plants time to absorb moisture.
⛱️ Provide temporary shade using cloth, umbrellas, or by moving pots out of direct sunlight during the hottest hours.
🪵Add a layer of organic mulch - bark, wood chips, or compost - to help retain soil moisture and keep roots cool.
Don’t forget about yourself too! If you are out gardening this weekend remember to wear spf, stay hydrated and avoid the midday sun where possible ☀️
