It's time to...
Plant up hanging baskets, and leave them in a sheltered spot before hanging fully outside
Plant out potted alliums in groups to add interest to flower beds
Prune spring-flowering shrubs immediately after flowering, such as forsythia, ribes, chaenomeles, pyracantha and kerria
Regularly water newly planted trees, roses, shrubs and hedging
Finish planting out gladioli corms in groups or drifts in borders
Spread shredded bark mulches around established shrubs and trees to conserve soil moisture and suppress weeds
Water clumps of tulips and spring bulbs with liquid feed
