Tips and tasks for a beautiful March garden

March is when winter turns to spring so start your month propagating and dividing and then get planting as the cold weather becomes milder. It's a great idea to plant your lilies at the end of the month and make sure you look after your snowdrops. 

Here's your to-do list for the garden in March: 

Propagate perenials

Cut grass

Sow half-hardy annuals

Prune hydrangeas

Plant lilies

Divide snowdrops
