Would you like colour all summer long? Simply use perennial plants with a long-bloom time; they are easy to maintain and will provide colour all season long.
Summer gardening guidelines:
• Weed your garden, it’s inevitable, they will come
• Remove dead flower heads to encourage future blooming
• Prevent overcrowding and rot by dividing perennials
• Add fertilizer to your soil
• Watch for pests and diseases
• Water the thirsty plants, the further into summer the thirstier they are
• Wear a sun hat, sunscreen, garden gloves, do not overwork yourself and use tools that were made for the task
