What to do in the garden: November



I still have a couple shrubs and trees that need to be planted out:

  • Camellia oleifera
  • Daphniphyllum macropodum
  • Ginko biloba 'Menhir' 
  • Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy'
If possible, I'd also like to get the black phormiums also in the ground.

I want to mulch the camellias and rhododendrons with some ericaceous compost.

The light frosts of the past couple of nights have finally put the bananas into dormancy, so they can now be wrapped up for the winter. (Finally!)



That will be the last part of the garden put to bed for winter.  Now will be the time to start sorting out paths and any other hard landscaping tasks, getting ready for Spring!
