There is still a lot to do in the garden in August. You can find out what work you should not miss in our small summary.

1. Plant the autumn bloomers now
Most bulbs that bloom in autumn or next spring are planted in July. But garden lovers also have the opportunity to plant onion plants in August. These include:
2. Take offshoot
Another activity that is predestined for garden August is to take off plants from various plants. Classic offshoots come from violets, ground cover plants such as the evergreen creeping spindle and the so-called stork's beak. Incidentally, ground cover plants can also be propagated through woody cuttings, but these are only cut in autumn.
3. Cut the hedge
Cutting hedges is also typical for August. For example, the tree hedge and the various bush hedges tolerate the cut very well in late summer. But watch out! Radical cuts are prohibited because hedges are often the breeding ground for birds.
4. Plant strawberries

5. Buy new bulbs
The August weeks are a good time to buy new bulbs for the coming season. Spring bloomers like tulips, daffodils and hyacinths come into the earth in autumn. Get your favorite stock in August so that planting can start in September.
