Now is the time to be bold and give your garden a reshuffle

TL;DR

  • Gardens improve when plots are frequently rearranged.
  • Moving plants can introduce new shapes, forms, and ideas.
  • The period between Christmas and January is symbolically good for plant rearrangement.
  • Wait for cool, damp, and docile conditions, ideally when perennials are dormant.
  • Prioritize moving plants that are not thriving or are in unsuitable conditions.
  • Prepare the new planting site by digging a generous hole and adding mulch or compost.
  • After replanting, water the plant and firm the soil.
  • Enjoy the new arrangement while waiting for visible results and consider further adjustments before spring.
