Announcing the news in your social media pageHome Bargains wrote in the caption: ”Our garden centers are ready for you!

Dozens of gardening enthusiasts responded to the comments, with many demanding the brand open more locations across the country.
May gardening work
The Sun’s gardening editor Veronica Lorraine shared the tasks you need to get done in May.
GARDEN growth can go from zero to ninety in May, depending on the weather. The last frosts in the UK usually occur at the beginning of the month, so suddenly there is so much more to do and grow.
Plant dahlia tubers
It’s a joy to finally plant your dahlia tubers. Keep in mind how big they can get—and space accordingly—anything up to two feet apart.
It’s a good idea to invest in your backing bets now rather than trying to work around them.
And be sure to include lots of well-rotted manure or decent compost to feed it, and then mulch it to keep it moist and suppress weeds. They usually start to bloom in July.
Final feeding for spring flowers
You can give any remaining tulips and daffodils a cheeky feed.
While most bulbs are no longer guaranteed to come back year after year, as long as you let them die naturally, there’s a good chance they’ve stored enough energy to come back again. Tomato feeding is fine.
Tie climbers
Your clematis, honeysuckle and rambling roses should already be well underway – try using plastic string to tie them back to the support or clip them together to ensure they don’t sprout in crazy directions.
Feed the lawn
It’s not too late to give your lawn a good nourishment.
Whether you use granulated or liquid, it can be a good boost to get you through the harshest summer months.
When mowing the grass, do not reduce the length of the cut too much and never reduce the height of the grass by more than a third.
Be creative
It’s also time to get creative when hanging baskets and pots.
Pelargoniums, which many people call geraniums, and begonias are a good, low-cost way to get beautiful flowers that return all summer long in your baskets.
And the pots can be planted with spring bulbs.
Don’t forget the greenhouse!
Give your greenhouse a good tidy and clean the glass inside and out.
Improved light will help plants grow faster indoors, and tidiness is good for the soul.
You can simply use a homemade solution of white wine vinegar and water – or even plain if you’re tired – which gives a really nice shine.
One said: ”I wish our Home Gargains had a garden centre.
”I love storing things, but a proper garden center would be ace.
Another super fan cried, writing: ”Please can you bring a store to NW [North West] London like there is NONE.
