And if you're planning on hosting any BBQs or garden parties, you want to make sure your garden is in tip top shape.
Although you may think that jazzing up your patio will be a costly affair, B&M's Solar Powered Butterfly Ground Lights prove you don't have to break the bank.
The bargain buy, which comes in a pack of four multi-colour LEDs, is priced at just £4, down from £6.
The lights are solar powered, meaning that they charge up using the sun's rays, and automatically turn on when it gets dark.
And since they don't require electricity, there's no wires or plugs you need to faff about with.
Simply place the lights on your garden or patio and watch as, at dusk, they transform your outdoor space into a magical haven.
A product description reads: "Bring some magic to your garden with these Solar Powered Butterfly Ground Lights.
"With a stunning multi-colour solar glow, these garden lights are the perfect decorative light to brighten up your outdoor space."
Asda also has solar powered butterfly lights on offer, but these are priced at £9, more than double the price of the B&M version.
The Asda lights come in a pack of 10, and can last up to eight hours when fully charged.

Nick Grey, Gtech Inventor and CEO shared the tasks to crack on with as Spring arrives.
1. Clean your garden
Make sure to clear away all leaves, soil and plant debris from your patios and flower beds; this creates a healthier environment for new growth, especially as we get into the summer months. Gtech's Garden Safety Kit includes durable gardening gloves and safety glasses; perfect for comfortability whilst tackling those outdoor tasks.
2. Weeding
Early Spring is the best time to tackle weeds; if you can introduce some regular weeding into your routine, you can guarantee a tidy garden all year round.
3. Hedge maintenance
Spring is the ideal time to tidy up overgrown hedges and shrubs, as regular trimming ensures healthy growth and reduces pest issues. Using a tool like the Gtech Lightweight Hedge Trimmer can help to keep your greenery looking sharp and neat.
4. Composting
Starting a compost heap this spring is a pro-active, cost-effective way to harness nutritious soil for your plants and recycle organic waste that will benefit the overall health of your greenery and foliage.
5. Look after your lawn
Lawn care is hugely important in assuring your garden stays looking beautiful. Make sure to rake away any excess leaves and trim your grass routinely.
