How to keep your garden vibrant through the winter months

Gardening does not have to pause when the temperature drops. Join Michael Perry to discover simple, inspiring projects that bring nature indoors and maintain interest in your garden throughout the autumn and winter seasons.

The video explores accessible winter projects designed to brighten your home and outdoor spaces. You can learn to sow sweet peas to ensure stronger blooms come spring, create colourful indoor and outdoor cyclamen displays, and even grow hyacinths in water for a striking winter feature.

Beyond seasonal planting, the footage provides context from Michael Perry's own transformation of a small, 10 x 5m suburban garden in Ipswich. Having moved into the property in July 2021, Perry shares how he used planting to create a 'springtime fairytale' from a neglected space. His approach includes leaving fading perennial seedheads to provide winter interest and habitats for insects, delaying major clean-ups until February or March.
