Posts from June 2026

June is one of the best months to enjoy the garden, but it is also one of those months where a bit of regular care makes a big difference. 
 
Pots start drying out quicker, hanging baskets need more attention, borders begin filling out, and anything planted earlier in spring is now putting on real growth. It is also the time when gaps can start to show, especially if spring flowers have gone over or baskets are beginning to look a little tired. 
 
The good news is that June is a brilliant month for adding fresh colour. 
 
Whether you are planting up patio pots, refreshing hanging baskets, filling border gaps or looking for something to attract bees and pollinators, there is still plenty you can do to keep the garden looking bright through summer. 
 
At Old Oak Farm Nurseries, June is always a busy month for bedding plants, perennials, shrubs, hanging baskets, basket plants, vegetables and garden advice. Here are some simple June garden jobs to help keep your outdoor space looking its best.
