Continue planting hardy shrubs and trees. Begin pruning overgrowing shrubs etc. which need pruning before flowering. If lawn areas are not waterlogged, consider repairing damaged edges. In mild conditions you can begin pruning roses by the end of Feb. Deciduous hedges can be still cut back. March is ideal to begin weeding borders and mulching, after damping the soil. Divide border perennials before new growth starts. Complete planting bare root roses, shrubs and trees. Look for bare areas in borders and choose plants to fill gaps.
