Garden maintenance (Cape Town) is a responsibility that every garden owner cannot afford to joke with, particularly because of the outbreak of plant diseases in gardens today.

One very important thing you should know and understand well about preventing garden disease is that three things have to be present before it can occur. These three things are; a host (a plant susceptible to the disease), a pathogen that is capable of attacking the plant, and a suitable environmental condition for disease existence. Therefore, preventing disease occurrence in your garden means you making sure that at least one of the trio is absent in your garden. A concise explanation of this is the popular adage “prevention is better than cure”. Garden maintenance Cape Town is made easy with the top-notch service rendered by Gardens Galore.
