Nature awoke from its winter sleep. Crocuses and snowdrops began to bloom in the gardens, tulips and daffodils are also growing. These first colorful signs of spring bring joy. After cleaning the balcony or garden furniture, you can warm up the barbecue with your family and friends or read a book in the spring sun.

If you don’t have a garden, you can add some spring mood to your window sill with flowers such as primroses, pansies, and hyacinths in flower boxes and pots.

Do not go out in the scorching sun after the winter months.

Balcony and potted plants can now be removed from their winter quarters, cut and repotted if necessary. Less sensitive plants can be placed outside in frost protected areas, such as near the wall of the house. But for oleander, citrus trees, and geraniums, you should wait until April. “It’s important for all plants not to be placed in direct sun after winter but to gently acclimate to the new light and temperature conditions,” says freelance gardener Mario Meier from Schöfflisdorf. In addition, care should be taken to ensure that there are no pests on the plants. If necessary, it should be treated accordingly.

correct pruning

Now is also a good time to plant fruit trees or fruit seedlings. Tomatoes, celery, sausage, kohlrabi, eggplant, lettuce, cauliflower and white cabbage, broccoli and basil can also be planted in the cold frame. Spring is also a good time to plant lavender, hydrangea or hibiscus. You should pay attention to the different types. Not all places are suitable. It is also always important to use the appropriate potting soil. If you are unsure, ask the authorized shop.

Roses and shrubs blooming in late summer, and evergreen grasses should be pruned in March. Hedges must also be cut and trimmed again. Fruit trees can now be pruned for the last time before they bloom. If there are raspberries in the garden and you want to collect a lot of fruits, now you must also cut them vigorously. Meier, gardener: “It is important to ensure a clean cut with well-sharpened scissors or saws so that the interfaces in shrubs and trees heal well,” explains gardener Meier. According to the gardener, the cut should always be at an angle.

Lawn care in the spring

If you have a lawn garden, you can mow the lawn to about four centimeters for the first time after dry days and good weather. Leaves, branches and grass clippings should then be removed. It makes sense to dig up after winter and after the first mowing. A long-term fertilizer complements lawn care and provides the lawn with essential nutrients. Any bare spots on the lawn can now be reseeded. For this, before the grass seeds are distributed, the soil should be loosened a little in the appropriate place, pressed and watered with some water. Important: The newly planted areas should not be cut yet at the next mowing.
