Your guide to autumn gardening
Crispy leaves, cosy nights, comforting hot drinks – autumn is here!
This season is a joyous time of year with plenty to offer garden lovers. From planting your favourite spring-flowering bulbs and caring for your outdoors, to celebrating the season with themed events and delicious seasonal dishes in our restaurants – discover everything we have to offer to help you enjoy autumn to its fullest
NOW'S THE TIME to plant
Autumn is nature’s time to shine. As we say goodbye to summer, the warm soil in your garden plus increased rainfall make the perfect conditions for planting. Getting your shrubs, perennials, and spring-flowering bulbs in the ground now gives them time to establish their roots, so they’ll thrive next year when spring arrives. Plus, adding a rich variety of autumnal colour through seasonal flowering plants helps liven up your garden when not much else is blooming. Find out what you should be planting in your garden this autumn and discover how to fill your garden with seasonal interest with our easy to follow guides
