HOME and GARDEN Newcastle - UK Planting Guide.
★★★★★
In the UK, planting is typically based on the seasons to align with climate and growing conditions:
- Spring (March - May): This is a good time to plant vegetables such as peas, broad beans, potatoes, carrots, spinach, and lettuce. Herbs like basil, parsley, chives, and dill can also be planted. For flowers, you can plant sweet peas, sunflowers, marigolds, and pansies. In terms of fruits, strawberries, raspberries, and blackcurrants are commonly planted.
- Summer (June - August): During the summer, warm-season vegetables like tomatoes, courgettes, cucumbers, runner beans, and sweetcorn are ideal. Herbs such as mint, rosemary, sage, and thyme thrive in the heat. You can also plant summer flowers like lavender, dahlias, roses, and hydrangeas. Fruits such as apples, pears, cherries, and plums can also be planted or tended during this time.
- Autumn (September - November): As the weather cools, hardy vegetables such as kale, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, leeks, and garlic can be planted. Herbs like coriander, oregano, and fennel are good for autumn planting. You can also plant flowers such as crocuses and daffodils (for next spring), and violas. Fruits like blackberries, elderberries, and grapes do well in autumn.
- Winter (December - February): Winter is a time for planting cold-hardy vegetables like winter lettuce, onions, shallots, and parsnips. Some herbs, such as bay leaves and thyme (in mild areas), can also be planted, along with chervil. Winter flowers include snowdrops, hellebores, and winter aconites. Rhubarb (if forced) and gooseberries (which are pruned in winter) are good fruit options during this season.
By aligning planting schedules with the seasons, UK gardeners can optimize growth and yield.
