Time to make sure you can capture some of the expected heavy rainfall by installing a water butt.

You can buy water butts everywhere now – on line, in garden centres, supermarkets and even garages .

There are many different types, shapes and sizes – try to buy water butts using re-cycled materials if possible.

I am not an experienced gardener - more of an enthusiastic amateur who learns by trial and error and is keen to "manage" the effects of the weather on my garden. Writing this blog is my passion and I hope that it will continue to grow, allowing global gardeners to communicate about the effects of climate change on our plants and the future of our gardens.
