What to do in the garden this week: pull up tomatoes and rake fallen autumn leaves
Tidy up your garden and storage cupboard as the autumn months roll in.
Pull up greenhouse tomato plants and pick any remaining full-sized fruit to ripen indoors.
Start raking up fallen leaves gathering on lawns and in the corners of paths and patios.
??Check stored onions, shallots and garlic regularly and remove any that are going soft or mouldy.
Trim back standard-trained fuchsias, lavenders etc in the conservatory to roughly reshape the rounded head and remove any dead flower heads. There’s less risk of harbouring outbreaks of grey mould.
