Getting your lawn ready for spring: Why March is crucial and how Rose Above can help! 🌱

​A gorgeous green lawn doesn't just happen; it requires TLC, especially in March. As your local Cotswolds gardeners, Rose Above is here to guide you through the essential steps for achieving a thriving lawn:

​Scarifying: Think of it as a deep clean for your lawn! Scarifying removes thatch (dead grass, moss, and other organic matter) that suffocates your grass and prevents water and nutrients from reaching the roots.

​Moss removal: Spring is prime moss-growing season. Removing it is essential because it competes with your grass for space and nutrients, leaving your lawn looking sparse.

​Weeding: Nip those weeds in the bud before they take over! March is the perfect time to tackle broadleaf weeds and dandelions.

​Feeding: Once your lawn is clean and weed-free, it's time to feed it with a high-quality lawn fertiliser. This will encourage strong root growth and lush green blades.

​Ready for a beautiful lawn this summer? 🤩 Contact us today to schedule your lawn care services. We serve clients throughout the Cotswolds and are passionate about creating healthy, thriving outdoor spaces.

It’s easy to get lost in the sheer beauty of a Magnolia in full bloom. But did you know you aren’t just looking at a flower—you're looking at history? 🕰️
Magnolias are one of the very first flowering plants (angiosperms) ever to appear on Earth. These breathtaking trees were actually blooming during the Cretaceous period, roughly 100 million years ago. 🦕💨 That means Magnolias were around before bees and butterflies existed. (They rely on beetles to pollinate them, which is why their petals are so tough and waxy).
They are truly "living fossils." 🌿🤍

Maintaining a tree with this kind of lineage requires specialised knowledge. Magnolias are sensitive, especially in our Cotswold climate. They can easily bleed sap if pruned at the wrong time of year, and an improper cut can encourage a weak, messy structure. This primitive beauty deserves more than just a quick trim.

At "Rose Above," we provide expert, specialised garden maintenance and structural pruning throughout the Cotswolds.

Good things take time—sometimes exactly 1,095 days. ⏳✨
​I’ve been nurturing this batch for 3 years, recycling a full 12-month cycle of maintenance waste back into the earth. Today, it’s finally ready: screened to a perfect 1/2 inch and completely weed-free.

​Why compost at home?
- ​Waste to Wealth: It turns your garden clippings and kitchen scraps into the best fertilizer money can’t buy.
- ​Soil Health: It improves drainage, feeds beneficial microbes, and locks in moisture.
- ​Planet First: It keeps organic waste out of landfills and reduces your carbon footprint.

​It’s the ultimate full-circle moment for any garden. If you’ve been wanting to start your own heap but don’t know where to begin, we’re here to help you set up a system that actually works.
