Overview

  • Early June's warming air and soil temperatures create optimal conditions for sowing seeds and introducing new plants.
  • Watering in the early morning or late evening minimizes evaporation and helps roots absorb moisture effectively.
  • Weeding young shoots and adding organic mulch suppresses pest growth and feeds the soil to support healthy plants.
  • Deadheading and pruning faded blooms refines plant structure and encourages sustained flowering throughout summer.
  • Mowing weekly at the correct height and time protects turf health and prevents stress during peak growth periods.
