Cotswolds Garden - FAQs
Frequently asked gardening related questions
Maintenance is minimal. Annually, top up mulch, remove weeds, and spend time lightly pruning spent blooms. Grasses may be cut back in late winter. Replace plants that fail with equally drought-hardy ones. Paths and gravel may require occasional topping up. Inspect irrigation systems if used, but after establishment these gardens depend little on watering. The reduced upkeep is a major advantage - no mowing lawns or feeding thirsty plants regularly.
