July in the flower garden is the mid point in the season and by this stage there are a lot of jobs to keep on top of, often too many!! It has been particularly challenging weather recently with little sunshine, blustery winds and cool temperatures for the time of year hampering progress with the flowers. This week we look at some of the jobs I have been tackling to help out with the rest of the season.
Deadheading
Cutting back
Succession sowing
Staking and support
Lifting ranunculus and anemones
