Flowering In: June

June is a bustling month in the gardening calendar, offering a wealth of activities to cultivate a vibrant and flourishing outdoor space. Regular weeding and mulching become crucial in June, helping to retain soil moisture and suppress unwanted plant competition. Gardeners can continue deadheading spent flowers to promote continuous blooming, while also considering the strategic placement of support structures for tall or sprawling plants. As the temperatures rise, attention to proper watering becomes paramount, especially for newly planted specimens. June showcases a stunning display of flowering plants, with roses taking center stage alongside vibrant perennials such as daylilies, lavender, and delphiniums. Ornamental trees like crape myrtles and hydrangeas contribute to the visual symphony, making June a delightful month for reveling in the rewards of gardening efforts and relishing the lush beauty of the summer garden.
