When it is really cold we withdraw into our houses, but evergreens such as thuja (arbor vitea) have to stand outside in the frost without any protection.

Then shorten them and divide them into several small pieces with a spade. Water them well once they have been planted again - and that is it! Now your "new shrubs" will have sufficient time to grow out before winter comes.

Brightly coloured autumn foliage looks picturesque on your lawn. Unfortunately, it robs the grass of the light that it urgently needs. The results are less colourful: bald patches and the risk of fungal infections. For that reason it is better to take your leaf rake and clean your lawn of leaves. The collected leaves are nonetheless useful: as protection from delicate shrubs and bushes.
