UK Garden Planner
The checklist above shows everything worth doing in your UK garden this month, organised by task type and tailored to your region. UK gardening is driven by seasonal patterns that vary significantly from Scotland to the South West — what you can sow outside in Cornwall in March isn't possible in Yorkshire until May. The region-aware checklist accounts for these differences so you're never working from advice written for a different climate.
Seed planning and ordering. Chit potatoes. Sow onions, leeks and peppers under heat. Force rhubarb. Prune apples and pears on dry days.
Sow tomatoes, courgettes and squash indoors. Direct sow peas, broad beans, carrots and beetroot. Plant early potatoes. Divide perennials.
Plant out tender crops after last frost. Direct sow French beans and sweetcorn. Begin succession sowing salads. Feed tomatoes weekly once in flower.
Peak harvesting season. Water regularly in dry spells. Sow winter brassicas and autumn salads. Earth up leeks. Harvest garlic when foliage yellows.
Plant spring bulbs — tulips, daffodils, alliums. Sow green manures. Lift dahlias after first frost. Plant garlic and overwintering onions. Collect leaf mould.
Plant bare-root trees, roses and hedging. Mulch beds for winter protection. Clean and oil tools. Plan crop rotation for next year. Order seed catalogues.
The checklist adjusts for your region — select Scotland, Northern England, Midlands, Wales, South East or South West and the timing shifts accordingly. A job that's appropriate for April in Cornwall may not be safe until mid May in Scotland. Regional awareness is particularly important for planting out tender crops, last frost dates, and early spring sowing.
