With spring just around the corner - we know it doesn’t feel like winter is going to end right now, but we promise spring will be here soon! Now is the best time to get your garden looking its best whilst the weather is keeping fine and temperatures are on the rise (slightly).
With autumn’ wetness giving us a reason not to venture out and the winter’s cold, wet and snowy days persuading us to stay inside with the fire lit. Even some us of here at
World of Power have been neglecting our gardening duties – we do promise every year it will be different but hey another year another neglected garden.

Now that the lawn has been dealt with – we hope you saw our last blog on getting the lawn ship shape for spring? We move onto the patio area – after all it’s nearly time for garden parties once again and you wouldn’t want people coming round to a dirty patio area would you.

Irene’s initial thoughts from the trip; “throughout my visit the emphasis was on ‘quality’ which was very evident.”
Although due to
Stihl being so forward with their technology we were unable to use the camera, so have no images of their plants to show (sorry!) But check out Mr Stihl’s first ever chainsaw!

Andreas Stihl made his first chainsaw in 1926, from there he grew his business to the worldwide empire it is today with manufacturing plants across the globe, with members of the Stihl family still playing active roles within the company today. They have a research and development team who are constantly making improvements and bringing new products into their range to satisfy their diverse
