“If you love a rose, you have to love its thorns too.” – Matshona Dhliwayo

• Remove all leaves that will be under the vase as this will prevent them from rotting.

You ought to know that October is the first Spring month.

~ Karel Capek, The Gardener’s Year

Autumn has arrived! A time for digging and moving tender plants under cover before the first frosts arrive, planting bulbs, bare root trees and shrubs and raking up fallen leaves… October can be one of the wettest months of the year but after such a long dry summer I’m sure few will complain. Lawns will soon start to recover and water butts to fill.

October is the time for woodland walks, foraging and for the first log fires of the season. It’s also time for clearing and washing the greenhouse, of placing nets over ponds to keep out falling leaves and loads of other tasks.

 So, although autumn is here, don’t go getting too mellow, there’s still work to be done!

• Plant garlic, either directly in the ground or in pots, and keep the area weed-free as it grows.
• Winter salad leaves can now be sown along with other hardy veg such as peas and beans or winter cabbages.
• Pull up and compost any remaining annuals. Replace them with winter and spring flowering Pansies, Wallflowers, Bellis and Primulas, not just in the garden but in containers too. Empty tubs are such a missed opportunity!
• Spring flowering bulbs are still available to buy and to plant so make sure you have enough for a blaze of colour next year.
• Tulips will be better for having had a late planting as it helps them to avoid fungal disease.
• It’s time to bring inside any houseplants that have enjoyed summer in the garden. The sudden change in temperature and atmosphere may cause them to shed a few leaves. However, water sparingly and they’ll be fine.
• October can bring strong winds so check your tree stakes are nice and firm. Moving anything flimsy undercover.
• Improve the condition of your soil and add nutrients by sowing green manure – winter mix. This has to be one of the least labour intensive, most environmentally friendly and easiest method of improving next year’s crops.
• Autumn is bare root season so now is the perfect time to order your fruit trees. The roots will work away below ground to get established, so by the time spring comes the trees will be ready to burst into growth.
• And if the weather is truly rubbish and you need an excuse to wrap up warm inside, get one step ahead and plan your seeds for the 2021 season!

Secure Your Seeds For Next Year!

As the nation has become impassioned in the world of growing your own produce, seed sales have tripled this year for Dobies. New gardens and their keepers have sprung up everywhere, with some rekindling their passion whilst existing gardeners have simply grown more. This trend looks like it’s here to stay so make sure you secure your seeds for 2021 to avoid disappointment, while we keep up with the growing demand.

The Month Of The Calendula

The birth flower for October is Calendula (Pot Marigold) and its cheery blooms are loved by insects and gardeners alike. Calendulas can be used to help repel whitefly from around tomatoes and they can also attract aphids away from your bean plants; hoverflies, lacewings and ladybirds too!

Not only are they excellent to help control bugs but they are edible as well! Petals can be plucked and added to salads or dried to create ‘Poor Man’s Saffron’ perfect for colouring rice or to add to your baking for a natural yellow/orange shade.

… and 2021 is the Year Of The Calendula as named by Fleuroselect, so what better way to get things started than by introducing one of next year’s new varieties.

NEW Calendula Bulls Eye

The Calendula Bulls Eye are a very unique plant, producing beautiful pom- pom style flowers. These magnificent flowers will not only add fantastic frilly shapes to your flower beds and flower borders but add profusions of bright sunshine yellow colours too. These beautiful bright colours contrast well with the dark flower centres, where they get their namesake the Bull’s Eye.

Time For Sweet Peas!

October to early November is the ideal time for sowing sweet peas. The long growing period will enable strong root growth which will in turn produce vigorous top growth. Not only will autumn-sown sweet peas flower earlier than spring sown, the plants will be stronger, the flower stems longer and the blooms more abundant.

When sowing sweet peas rootrainers are perfect, but you can also use the inner cardboard tubes from toilet rolls. Use a standard seed compost and sow 2 or 3 seeds together. As they grow, don’t thin out but plant each grouping, when the time is right, as a small clump. Keep your sweet peas in a cold frame or cool greenhouse and pinch out the growing tips when the plants reach about 10cm, this will make the plants bushier and stronger. Plant out in mid spring and then just wait for those fabulous flowers.

If you’re looking for a little inspiration, why not look at our new sweet pea Fire & Ice. The seeds produce fantastic white, purple and pink flowers accompanied by a strong, yet sweet fragrance. This variety of sweet pea grows with longer stems making them perfect for container and patio pot displays. A Modern Grandiflora type that grows to a height of 151–200cm, you can train them to grow up decorative trellises, obelisks or even arches. Grow them in your flower beds and flower borders for a sweet-scented and colourful display.

Recipe of the Month

Pumpkins and winter squash are synonymous with autumn and October in particular. Being muck loving plants they will have produced a good crop if grown in a sunny spot with plenty of manure. By October the fruits are mature and ready to be harvested, before the first frosts arrive.

With our guide to planting winter bedding plants, you’ll achieve wonderful winter garden displays to brighten your outside space and life your spirits in the dark days of winter.

Why use winter bedding plants?

Bedding plants add flurries of vibrant colour to your garden for a season or two. They need replacing when they fade each year or at the end of each season.

As many bedding plants only bloom during the spring and/or summer, adding winter bedding plants will extend the flowering season in your outside space.

Even if you aren’t planning to spend much time outdoors during winter, you can see your garden from your windows. So make sure it provides a lovely view that is packed with colour.

Flowering plants will lift your spirits in the short winter days. If you don’t have a large garden, consider window boxes and patio pots or add hanging baskets around your exterior doors. Winter bedding will brighten your garden and fill any gaps in bare borders, plus hanging baskets and pots offer a warm floral welcome to visitors during some of the darkest months of the year.

Planting winter bedding plants

As summer draws to an end, your existing bedding plants will start to lose their colour and flowering will stop. This means that it’s time to brighten up your borders, hanging baskets and patio pots with some winter bedding plants!

Autumn is the perfect time to plant your winter bedding plants out, which means planting them in their final flowering positions. Here they will establish and take over from your spent summer plants, offering fresh new flowers to enjoy.

To replenish your garden with winter bedding plants, simply remove any old bedding plants and compost them. If you are planting in pots or containers, replace the compost as most of the nutrients will have been used by the previous plants. Pop your plants into their final flowering positions and water them in.

Caring for winter bedding plants

Once established, your winter bedding plants will only require watering in prolonged dry spells. Be careful not to overwater potted plants as this can lead to rot. Deadhead the spent flowers from your winter bedding plants to encourage more blooms to form.

Winter bedding varieties

Selecting the right bedding plants for your garden is exciting but with a range of varieties to choose from can also be daunting. We’ve made it easy for you to select the perfect plants by creating bedding plant themes.

Winter flowering bedding plants are those varieties that can withstand the cold and rain of a UK winter, and the choice of colours and shapes will surprise you! Our most popular varieties include:

Pansies

Pansies are low-growing and with large, hardy, striking flowers in an amazing array of colours.

Polyanthus

Our winter bedding plants will fill your hanging baskets, window boxes, patio pots and borders. With beautiful colour and fabulous foliage to create a beautiful winter garden.

Caring for Primrose plants
