Top gardening trends of 2025
Gardening experts at Barnsdale Gardens has shared the top gardening trends of 2025.
Matrix planting
It seems that a top planting trend for this year is going to be Matrix Planting.
In essence, planting in groups or blocks to give an effect of being wild whilst actually being carefully managed.
Selection of the plants is essential, to give year-round interest either with flowers, seed heads or frosted/snowy spent flower heads. Some recommend using plants that seed around, but this could make managing your matrix planting harder to keep under control.
Chrysanthemum comeback
I hope that the humble Chrysanthemum makes as much of a comeback this year as Dahlias have over recent years, because the simple single flowered types, such as 'Innocence' and 'Cottage Apricot' would be spectacular within a matrix scheme.
The hardy varieties are so easy to grow in a sunny spot and give such a valuable burst of late summer and autumn colour that would lift any dull- looking border.
Blended borders
For some time now we have been promoting the growing of veg within ornamental borders and I think this could really take off this year.
The choice of ornamental-looking varieties available in seed catalogues is phenomenal and, if managed correctly, visitors to your garden will not even realise that you have veg growing!
Must-have tool
My secret is out. I discovered the Hori Hori a couple of years ago and now it seems so is everyone else.
It is such a well-made, adaptable tool that can be used as a trowel or weeding tool in the garden that and everyone I speak to who have used it absolutely would not now be without it. Enough said!
The sofa set, which was originally priced at £350, has now been reduced to £275.
Tesco shoppers are currently rushing to stores to buy stunning "reduced to clear" garden furniture that's up to 40% off.
Shoppers can get their hands on the Outsunny Foldable Sun Lounger that comes with a side pocket and headrest for £23.19.
Reduced from £28.99, this lounger is great for relaxing outdoors.
If you're planning a garden bash this summer and need to give your gazebo frames a new lease of life, these Outsunny Gazebo Side Panels might just be for you.
The side panels have been reduced to £25.59 and come in two different sizes, both of which have windows to let in that natural light.

From tortoise only eating pellets to terrier struggling in the heat – your pet queries answered
Scroll down to Sean's advice about a 25-year-old cockatiel that has been pulling his feathers out PAWS & CLAWS From tortoise only eating pellets to terrier struggling in the heat – your pet queries answered Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HE is on a mission to help our pets . . . and is here to answer YOUR questions. Sean, who is the head vet at tailored pet food firm has helped with owners' queries for ten years. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Sean McCormack, head vet at promises he can 'help keep pets happy and healthy' 4 A reader is worried about the eating habits of her tortoise Credit: Getty Q) ALTHOUGH I offer him plenty of leafy veg and weeds my tortoise Ron turns his nose up at it. He only eats tortoise pellets. It's like someone addicted to junk food. Are they enough? What do you suggest? Helen Maitland, Bexley, Kent Sean says: Tortoise pelleted food is supplementary to be used in small amounts occasionally. Their diet should mimic what they eat in the wild. I'm assuming Ron is a common Mediterranean species. Start with delicious weeds or wildflowers most tortoises cannot resist, such as dandelion flowers. Then reduce the amount of pelleted diet while offering vibrant coloured salads. Base it on leafy greens, add in flowers like nasturtiums, and perhaps some grated carrot and other colourful vegetables to get his interest. See The Tortoise Trust (tortoise and the British Chelonia Group ( Q) OVER the past few months, my 25-year-old cockatiel has been pulling his feathers out. It must hurt because Spikey squeals when he's doing it. World's Oldest Tortoise Jonathan Package - Joe Hollins Otherwise he's in good condition. He doesn't seem depressed, he's active and at times noisy. I've tried calcium and toys. Breeders I talk to think it's either age- related or a diet problem. I've tried changing his seed, giving him more fruit and recommended additives. But nothing seems to work. He saw a vet and was treated as a precaution for mites, as was his cage. Brian Palin, Telford, Shrops Sean says: With his age, I am concerned it could indicate underlying pain. Arthritis in his joints may lead to pain and plucking as a self soothing or frustration behaviour. Dietary imbalances can cause issues and build over time, so variety and supplements are a good idea. Ask your vet to prescribe an anti-inflammatory medication trial. If it helps, it may confirm my pain theory. After that, get an avian specialist vet to run tests. Q) WITH the hot weather, my nine-year-old terrier Delicie has been vomiting. It is definitely connected to the heat. What can I do? I have a fan and cooling pads and keep her indoors. Julie Dowling, Crayford, Kent Sean says: There are many causes for vomiting in dogs, ranging from stomach problems, dehydration, eating spoiled or unsavoury 'food' through to infections, inflammation or hormonal disease. But assuming this is due to heat you are on the ball. A fan blowing over a bowl of water with ice cubes will be really cooling. Also provide lots of shade, and water bowls all over the house. Walkies should only be super early or late at night. If she's vomiting more than a few times a day, becoming dehydrated (her gums will feel tacky), or is restless, lethargic or panting excessively, see the vet. Q) MY six-year-old daughter Emma wants a pet, but I'm not keen on a cat or dog. Can you recommend something a bit more interesting than a fish that would be suitable for her age? Elizabeth Holick, Plymouth, Devon Sean says: As you will need to help and supervise, due to Emma's age, it needs to be a pet you like too. Small rodents are too flighty and delicate and rabbits have more complex needs than many assume. Guinea Pigs are good, fun first pets. They are pretty entertaining, docile and robust to handle. Or try something less long lived or odd like Giant African Land Snails, Giant Millipedes or Stick Insects. Star of the week 4 Mia the 13-year-old rescue pup makes her Netflix debut in hit series Too Much alongside Megan Stalter MIA the rescue Chinese Crested pup is a Netflix star who has just made her red carpet debut. The 13-year-old has a role in hit series Too Much as the pet of the lead character Jessica, played by actress Megan Stalter, who is a workaholic New Yorker who comes to Britain following a break-up and finds herself on the dating scene. Mia was booked for the part through pet talent agency Urban Paws. Owner Bev Nicholson, 62, from Peterborough, said: 'Mia took filming in her stride and smashed the red carpet. 'I could not be more proud of my little pocket rocket.' Layla Flaherty of Urban Paws said: 'Our very own Mia is stealing the spotlight.'

Kew Little Pigs Farm in Amersham, Bucks, is giving two readers a one-year gold adoption package worth £95. They will also each get a family ticket to its Alice in Wonderland fun day on August 17, worth £60. To enter, send an email headed PIGGY to sundaypets@ by July 27. See T&Cs. Park 'pee posts' flag up dogs' health 4 Owners can check their pet's health this summer via park 'peeing spots' NEARLY three quarters of people have taken a sickie from work to care for their poorly pet, a new survey has revealed. A third of Brits (36 per cent) say they wouldn't trust anyone else to look after their sick pet, with 16 per cent admitting to lying to their boss to get time off. Meanwhile, 30 per cent have cancelled a date to nurse their dog back to health, a fifth (19 per cent) have missed an important event, while 16 per cent have cancelled a holiday. More than half – 52 per cent – of owners even admit that they care more about their pet's health than their partner's. The statistics from the experts in tailored dog nutrition, led the brand to provide dog lovers with a simple way to check their pet's health this summer via park 'peeing spots'. Experts fitted lamp posts in London's Victoria Park with pH tests designed to flag abnormal levels of acid or alkaline in dog urine, both of which can be early indicators of health issues. Dr Sean McCormack, who is also Tails' head vet, said: 'By making these tests quick and easy for owners, we're helping to catch potential issues early – before they become more serious or harder to treat.'

We left the UK & bought a three-bed in Bulgaria for £6k, we'll homeschool our kids there – but the garden terrifies me
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A WOMAN has shared an inside look into the home she and her partner purchased without even viewing it. The Welsh family ditched the UK in favour of the affordable property in Bulgaria. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A British family shared an insight into the home they purchased for just £6,000 in Bulgaria Credit: TikTok/@therollingrucks And while the massive three-bedroom home only set the couple back £6,000, they shared their fears that they may have bitten off more than they can chew. Posting on the family's TikTok account The Rolling Rucks, the mum-of-three gave viewers a virtual tour of the home. She explained that they drove from their native South Wales to the property in their camper van to inspect their purchase. However, upon arriving at the home, she wondered aloud if they had made a mistake. She revealed that the property is "much much bigger" than they had expected. While the TikToker was only able to show one room inside the home, she did give her followers a look around the garden. Garden woes She shared her concerns that they would have to knock down some of the structure to create room for their camper van. The mum added that they would also need "a chainsaw or five" to tackle the overgrown garden. However, her main concern with the outdoor space had nothing to do with the extensive work required. "I am freaking out about the snakes because this garden, there's going to be tons of them in there," she said. I've moved to hidden historic town where houses are the price of handbags & pints are cheaper than Tesco sandwiches The mum revealed that once they had tackled the garden, they would inspect the home to determine if it was worth saving. She explained that they were considering knocking it down and replacing it with a log cabin instead. "Now we knew we had a challenge on our hands but I'm not going to lie, this is a lot worse than what I was expecting," the TikToker said. She added that they were going to get to work on the property straight away, with the hopes of homeschooling their three children in the process. Viewer reactions TikTok users shared their thoughts on the property in the comments section. 5 Tips to Get on The Property Ladder Saving for your first property is tough, but it is possible. Here are a few steps for first-time buyers. 1. Cut back on luxuries and start saving Consistent monthly saving is the best way to accumulate enough money to get on the ladder, for a deposit and purchase fees. To do this, you need to take a look at your monthly outgoings and think about what can be cut out - holidays, new clothes, weekly takeaway. Using a savings calculator can help you to establish how long you will need to save for a deposit. Based on your income, you can figure out a realistic amount to save each month. 2. Have a realistic property search Set a budget for the property price you would like to buy, and think realistically about the location and size of your property. While we all may want that house with a view or extra bedroom, can you afford it? 3. Research Help To Buy and Shared Ownership schemes The government has introduced a few ways to help first-time-buyers get on the property ladder and they're great for those on lower incomes or to buy a property in more expensive areas like London. 4. Consider buying with another person Investing with somebody else you know is a sure way to get onto the property ladder. You only need to save half the amount you would otherwise, so you can work towards getting your property sooner. You can invest with a friend, family or partner. Naturally, it is a big step and a huge commitment so be open and honest about what you expect from living together — if you haven't already. 5. Talk to a mortgage broker and get your documents in order A mortgage broker can tell you exactly how much you can borrow for a mortgage, what you will need to pay monthly and in upfront costs. "Best to clear your garden, knock down and rebuild," advised one viewer. "The potential is amazing. Stay positive and remember Rome wasn't built in a day," said another follower. "I'm a builder and I wouldn't take on that. But best of luck with it," commented a third person. More stories from Brits living abroad And there are more Brits opting to live in Bulgaria over the UK, with one family transforming their home on a budget. Another couple shared their plans for the Italian mansion they purchased at half the asking price. One woman shared the lavish life she now leads after leaving Britain for Thailand. And a man left his life in the UK to work in the sunshine state, earning triple his previous salary.
