It's time to...
Plant tulip bulbs in groups to make drifts of spring colour
After first frosts, lift and store dahlia tubers or leave in the ground but mulch heavily
Plant evergreen shrubs and conifers, including new hedges
Lift tender cannas to avoid frost damage, and overwinter tubers in cool dark conditions
Plant out spring bedding
Sow hardy annuals in cleared areas for early flowers next summer
Sow sweet peas in pots, and overwinter under cover
Prune back standard roses to help prevent wind rock damaging the plants
Take hardwood cuttings from cornus, ribes, salix and roses
Plant up tubs and baskets with evergreens for autumn and winter interest
