Transform your garden into a summer haven using 79p item everyone keeps in their cupboards
YOU can completely transform your garden into a summer haven just by using an item that costs under a pound.
It's also something that everyone keeps at home in their cupboards.
There's nothing better than a blooming garden with plenty of flowers and if you are trying to impress a loved one, a rose might go a long way.
It turns out that you may be able to regrow your rose cuttings by using one simple ingredient, honey.
Experts at Recipes For Home have recommended taking a 6-inch-long rose cutting and trying dipping it in raw honey.
You are then advised to plant it in a pot with garden soil, which would then encourage root growth.

There are also other clever hacks to make the best use of your garden as summer approaches quickly.
We all know there is nothing worse than an ant infestation while you are trying to make the most of the sunshine.
Ants typically emerge when the weather gets warmer, and as well as being unsightly, can dig under your patio slabs and cause problems.
It turns out that spreading the skin of citrus fruits around your patio is a simple, budget-friendly method to keep the insects away.
The acidity of the fruits confuses the ants, and makes them unable to find their food source.
Citrus fruits such as lemons are super cheap, and you can pick them up from the supermarket for as little as 30p.
Other cheap deterrents you can use are things you probably already have in the kitchen cupboard, such as coffee beans, cinnamon, and salt.
Another common issue in many gardens is weeds, and they can negatively affect the overall health of your plants if not removed.
An expert from Moral Fibres previously spoke to the Daily Express about the best way to tackle unwanted plants.
