Getting Spring-Ready
Spring in Perth (September-November) is when gardens explode with growth. The preparation you do now sets up your garden for a stunning spring and a resilient summer. Regular maintenance during this period pays dividends.
Essential Spring Tasks
Fertilise lawns and garden beds with slow-release fertiliser. Start regular mowing as growth accelerates. Mulch to 75mm depth before summer heat. Test and service your reticulation system. Plant summer annuals after frost risk passes (rare in Perth but possible in hills).
Pest and Weed Watch
Spring is when weeds germinate en masse — get on top early. Apply pre-emergent herbicide. Watch for aphids on new growth and caterpillars on vegetables. See our weed control guide for strategies.
