@themichaelgriffiths: May gardening jobs If you didn't prune your lavender at the end of summer you can do that now to stop it going leggy. If you're going to do lawn care like aerating and reseeding do this by the end of the month. Apply nitrogen-rich summer lawn feed to encourage leaty growth. You can Plant out dahlia tubers and cannas after all risk of frost has passed and tie in the new shoots of climbing plants like clematis and wisteria to their supports. As the weather warms up it's a good time give everything a good clean. Apply liquid feed to tulips, daffodils for a good display next year. Plant out summer bedding and tender annuals like sunflowers and cosmos after the last frost. Harden off tender plants raised indoors remembering to bring them back in at night. Reduce snail populations by going on regular hunts, especially during damp weather. And start planting up your hanging baskets
What do you do with the snails once you’ve collected them?

Good tips. You’re supposed to tap snail shells a couple of times before you pick them up. It can damage them if you just pull them off things

I could have done with the lavendar tip a few weeks ago! I’ve cut mine back but I fear it’s dead. Any suggestions for how long I should wait to see if it recovers, please?
