Episode Details

Monty Don warns against trimming hedges in spring—especially April—because robins and other birds are busy nesting and raising chicks. Cutting too early risks harming their survival, and it’s actually illegal under the Royal Horticultural Society’s guidelines. Best to wait until late summer or winter. He also advises holding off on mowing until mid-March for healthier lawns. Timing matters: thoughtful gardening helps wildlife thrive.
