Penstemon ‘Sour Grapes’ Fuchsia ‘Whiteknights Pearl’ Sue’s August Tasks: • August is a good time to start trimming hedges as long as you are sure that the Mrs Robins of this world are no longer nesting. Our native hornbeam makes a lovely hedge and copes very well with exposure and if clipped now, tends to retain its leaves into the winter months rather like beech. • Box hedges will most probably have been cut by now but you can continue to tidy them up through to September. Don’t cut in full sun as they tend to burn. • Yew should be cut now. There is a myth that yew grows slowly. Actually, well fed and healthy plants can grow up to 12” a year so it’s worth adding compost to their bases when you have any available. The more the merrier. • August is a good time to tidy up both rambling and climbing roses. Their new season’s growth is still pretty pliable at this time of the year so with the ramblers weave them in and out of the support you have. Add a foliar feed and remember to remove any sick looking leaves and burn or bin them to prevent infection spreading. • Another thought for August if you haven’t already done it is to sow green manure on any land that is lying fallow or you have finished using for a vegetable crop. Phacelia tanacetifolia is certainly a good looking plant and if you decide not to dig it in over the winter or spring and leave it for a little longer, the bees absolutely love it as do all their pollinating friends. Crimson clover is another one that is both useful and decorative. • And take cuttings of tender perennials like fuchsias and penstemons now. Take the cutting either just below a leaf node or perhaps between leaf nodes. I usually go for the former. They root so fast, especially if the plants are still in active growth. It is really fun to ‘make’ your own plants. Take the cuttings early in the day when the plants are still a bit ‘dopey’. • Carry on with regular deadheading to prolong flowering but leave grasses alone. Their seed heads make a good food source in the winter and also provide cover. And they look good. When you are deadheading roses, avoid those like Rosa rugosa or R. ‘Frances E Lester’ that have such beautiful hips.
