Most councils in the UK now have a recycling scheme where you have a green wheelie bin and the council collect the waste from it about once every one or two weeks. However, whilst this might have been ok during the early summer months, when your garden needs cutting back or bushes or trees need pruning, the bin will quickly become full. So what’s the best way of getting rid of all that unwanted garden waste?

Many people have now realised the benefits of having their own compost heap or heaps. And if you keep on top of what you put on your heap, you can have some great mulch to put into your soil at the start of next season.

If you still have to get rid of some larger items, most councils still operate a green recycling scheme, you just need to get your garden waste to the nearest depot. If you know someone who has a van it can be a good idea to ask them if you can loan it for a day. Just make sure you have been added to their van insurance policy so you are adequately covered if you have an accident.

Tools are important for every gardener and good quality tools are a must. If you are just starting out on a new garden or have just been given the keys to your allotment there is a myriad of tools that you can choose from. From spades and forks to hoes and trowels, a visit to your local garden centre will reveal the many options on offer.

If you have a new garden or even allotment, one thing that is needed to store all your things is a shed or some other form of storage container. This will be somewhere you can keep your things dry, under lock and key and keep everything else you may need for your garden, from seed trays to potting compost. If you can afford the space instead of just getting a 6 by 4 shed, a good option is to go for a larger storage option. If you get a shed big enough you can even use it as a workshop or convert part of it to provide desk space where you can keep details about your garden plans or design next years garden layout. You might think that workshops in your garden is a little over the top, but if you have the space you should use it to its fullest potential.

Agapanthus have large rounded heads of flowers that are displayed on a long stem, colours go from blue to violet but there are also some pure white types.

The Stradsett Hall garden show 2009 will take place on Saturday and Sunday the 4th and 5th of July in Norfolk. Set in beautiful surroundings including private garden and lake, the shows highlights include a butterfly barrel competition, an art exhibition, antique valuations and over 75 trade stands.

The show supports a number of local charities including Norfolk Hospice, East Anglia Air Ambulance and the Kin’s Lynn branch of the National Osteoporosis Society.

If you water really well about once a week the roots of plants will put down longer deeper roots because the soil will be wetter deeper down, this is far better of course than shallow roots that can dry out a lot easier if they are not watered often.

If you are planting any new shrub or tree at this time of year then you should soak the root ball and the bottom of the hole you have dug, this is a far better method than just planting and then watering the surface.
