May is an exciting time for gardening with warm soil and reduced frost risks. New gardeners can focus on easy-to-grow crops like carrots, beans, lettuce, courgettes, and beetroot for successful harvests.

We are now officially in meteorological spring in the UK and finally the seed packets that have been burning a hole in your seed box are ready to be unleashed. It's an amazing time of year - the daffodils are in full bloom, the days are getting longer and there is a real feeling of hope and anticipation in the air.
