5 ways experts water their plants during a two-week holiday

The holiday is booked, the weather looks great, but oh – what about the plants in the garden – especially if we have a heatwave while I’m away!

This is definitely a problem to solve this summer with unknown temperatures heading our way. I can deep water before I go, but that won’t last long and my neighbours are elderly, so they can’t help me.

I have turned to our garden experts for advice on how they look after their plants when they’re on holiday, so I don’t come home to very sad-looking plants that I’ve been keeping alive for the last few months.
