Different regions of the country have different overall climates, with some gardens having an alternative climate to their locality.
\nThese minor variations are known as micro-climates, and here Weston Sawmill<\/a> is going to look at how yours will affect your garden.<\/p>\n

The Right Time to Check Your Micro-Climate<\/h2>\n

Although it\u2019s recommended to check the micro-climate of your garden when taking over a garden, new or old, there\u2019s never a bad time to start assessing your outdoor space.<\/p>\n

Here are some of the areas you will need to consider during this check \u2013<\/p>\n

Topography \u2013 The higher your garden is above sea level, then the cooler it will be and more exposed.
\nFrost Pockets \u2013 On colder nights cold air forms on cooling objects such as trees, sinks to the ground, and flows downhill to collect at low points known as frost pockets.
\nGardens in a frost pocket are at risk of late and early frosts with flowering plants and fruit trees not benefiting from being situated in frost pockets.
\nAspect \u2013 South facing gardens will get more natural light and warmth than north-facing areas. If you have fencing this will trap and reflect the warmth in south facing areas whereas northern facing gardens can favour plants such as fuchsias and hellebores.<\/p>\n

Your Garden\u2019s Micro-Climate Assessment<\/h3>\n

The first thing you will need to do to check your garden\u2019s micro-climate is look at the surrounding buildings, topography and trees and see how your garden is affected by winds (if at all).
\nLook to see if your trees lack top branches or they bent away from the direction of western or southern winds and if the garden is low-lying check for watercourses and ponds.
\nNow you will need to survey existing buildings, hedges, trees and walls to find sheltered warm spots, exposed windy corners plus corridors and dank, sunless areas.
\nFinally consider shaded areas, which may be easier to identify using a mobile phone camera than simply looking yourself, as the camera\u2019s lens can identify low light levels easier.<\/p>\n
