Your Garden in June, Should be a Garden in BLOOM!
06/20/2011
Here are a few June gardening tasks and projects that Keystone Gardening can do to help keep your garden looking it's best for the rest of this season. Perennials, annuals, and bulbs Has your spring been somewhat less than a sunny, gardeners delight? Haven't had enough time to get the garden looking quite right yet? Procrastinated on making that appointment with one of our sales designers? 'Color Spots' may be your quickest and easiest way of catching up with the neighbors. Color Spots are easy care, blooming size annuals we can install for you quickly. You will have some early summer colors before the sun sets. Result: I N S T A N T C O L O R ! Our Garden Support team can pinch back any annuals, Fuchsias, Geraniums, Cosmos or any other plants that might be getting a little leggy. They will pinch your Chrysanthemum's to encourage them to be bushier and have more blossoms. As a part of your Garden Support Plan we will pinch them again, every 6 inches or so, as they grow. This is an excellent month to pick out a few new perennials, and have them put them into the garden. We can divide spring flowering perennials like, Primroses, Arabis, and Aubrietia. Check your roses for mildew, aphid, black-spot or other insect or disease problems and if they appear we can take steps to control them right away. Roses will need to be fertilized each month through the summer. If you have roses, I strongly suggest a Garden Support Program to keep them healthy and you happy! We’ll make sure your climbing roses are securely tied into position. We will prune them after blooming. We will deadhead your annuals to encourage more flowers. We remove dead foliage from your spring flowering bulbs, but only after it has died back naturally. We will stake tall flowers to keep them from blowing over in the wind. All part of the support we provide with a Garden Support Program!
