Town & Country’s five essentials for a flourishing spring garden!

As the frosty winter weather gradually fades away, the refreshing spring season approaches. For gardeners, spring is a crucial time to prepare for a new planting season and get outdoor spaces ready for another exciting year of growing. However, in order for landscapes to thrive, gardeners need the right tools. Town & Country has put together a list of essential products that will help ensure gardens blossom into a beautiful oasis of colour.

1. A sturdy and reliable pair of gardening gloves

Choosing the right pair of gloves is vital for getting a job done well, and Town & Country has a variety of different styles to suit every task! Spring gardening often involves handling soil, mulch, and various plants so protecting hands is crucial. Town & Country’s range of hard-wearing, comfortable gloves offers complete protection and exceptional dexterity to keep green fingers safe. Protect hands from dirt, and rough surfaces with a sturdy pair of gloves that provide a good grip and make it easier to handle soil, plants, and gardening tools. These comfortable and light ECO-Flex Comfort gloves provide targeted protection on the palms and fingers and enhanced grip even in wet conditions. They are made from recycled Ocean waste with each pair being made from approximately one plastic water bottle. The gloves are both washable and reusable, making them both a practical and eco-conscious choice.

2.Versatile and protective footwear

Wellington boots are a springtime staple for gardeners. As the ground thaws and rain showers become more frequent, the Burford Wellington Boots will keep feet dry and comfortable in wet and muddy conditions. Made from lightweight PVC, the boots are ideal for long walks where comfort and support are needed. The stylish and contoured design means that the boots will continue to look smart and keep clothes protected from dirt and mess.

The material is strong enough to withstand the great outdoors yet supple enough to provide great comfort and fit, ideal for walking or gardening in all weather. The boots feature an easy pull-on tab so it will only take a second to pop them on and ensure feet are receiving maximum comfort and protection, rather than the annoyance of ruining your ordinary shoes. The boots are available in three different colours, navy, green and aubergine, in sizes ranging from four to twelve (sizes vary depending on colour).

3. A comfortable and supportive kneeler

Gardening often involves spending extended periods on the knees, which can be hard on the joints. The Memory foam double-wide folding kneeler provides a comfortable and supportive surface, reducing strain and allowing the gardener to focus on the task at hand. Lightweight and easy to carry or store, it features a non-slip surface and extra padding, making it perfect for any situation where comfort is key.

4. A contained space for potting new plants

A potting tray is an invaluable tool for any gardener, especially during the spring planting season. It provides a contained space for potting and transplanting, helping to keep a workspace tidy and organised. Town & Country’s weather-resistant Potting tray with shelf transforms any indoor space – be it a conservatory, shed, or greenhouse – into a convenient workstation. Sturdy and spacious, the tray and shelf combo simplifies potting tasks and keeps any mess contained. The wide front opening and deep sides provide ample room to work comfortably, regardless of the weather outside.

5. Convenient garden debris disposal

As work continues on a garden, waste and debris can accumulate quickly. A garden tidy bag is an excellent solution for keeping outdoor spaces clean and organised. Tidy up mounds of lawn cuttings, leaves or weeds with ease with the help of Town & Country’s Garden Tidy Bag. Available in both large (58cm diameter x 69cm height) and small (48cm diameter x 48cm height) sizes, the bag is ideal for collecting grass cuttings, weeds, and other garden waste, before disposing of it. Lightweight, waterproof, and easy to carry, the bag folds down flat when not in use.
