greenfingersguide answers the questions that come up in a British garden: why the leaves are turning yellow, when to prune the roses, what’s eating the hostas, whether the hedge next door is too tall.
We write for gardeners in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland: British plants, British weather and British rules, from frost dates to hosepipe bans.
We’re not a garden centre and we don’t sell plants. Where the law or official guidance applies, we point you to GOV.UK or the Planning Portal.
