 Pruning – Always use secateurs and prune your plants regularly. This will prevent having to clean up any mess left over as the waste will be minimum.
 Weeds – To avoid getting weeds try to ensure most areas are covered with plants. Additionally always remove weeds as soon as possible by pulling them out.
 Mulch – This helps to hinder weed growth, ideally spread over the soil after laying to prevent it from drying out. This is ideal for plants as it keeps the soil cool in the summer and insulates it during the winter.
 Lawn Mowing – The best way to mow your lawn is to mow often and mow high. Cutting the tips only can make the grass denser and look healthier.
 Water – Obviously water your plants often but also if you have an irrigation system try to clean the filters twice a year to ensure the plants and lawn get good quality water.
