These two tasks will get your looking fresh before the summer and can create a total transformation.
Painting your fences will help your garden have a well-maintained look and it will tie together everything else in your outdoor space.
The cooler, drier means you’ll have ideal conditions for paint or stain to dry properly without the intense summer heat causing it to dry too quickly and crack.
It also helps protect the wood from spring rain and UV damage, extending the lifespan of your fence while giving your garden a fresh, well-maintained look before summer.
Another important job to do now is jetwashing, which can be a time-consuming process, but it’s not one without reward.
It can be satisfying to see your look like it has brand new slabs and especially if they were originally of a lighter stone colour, they may have become dark and covered in moss over time.

Other jobs which the woman recommends doing this month include growing plants from seed – some of which are best to plant now.
She also recommends dividing and taking cuttings of plants you already have.
