Grow your own - Spring to action

Mary Llewellin has advice on February tasks for the fruit and vegetable garden

The February garden is often still deep in frost, but this year has generally been so wet and mild that normal rules don’t necessarily apply. We had daffodils before Christmas in some parts of the West, where Snapdragons is based!

If you too have been deluged, then tread lightly in the garden to avoid tramping down your soil. There remains a risk of frost and the soil needs to warm up before any outdoor planting begins, but there are still jobs to be done.
