During August & SeptemberAugust is high Summer when the heat is maintained but day-length becomes noticeablyreduced towards the end of the month.September is more mellow, day-length shortens rapidly as it progresses.• Scruffy Lawns will benefit from scarifying. Also, patches can be reseeded with a gentlyloosening of the top and addition of good quality seed. If dry pre-moisten and keep moist untilgrowth is established. If and when you cut the lawn, don’t over cut it and remember tocompost the clippings.• Summer pruning of fruit trees produces less soft growth than winter pruning. Birds andsquirrels love the ripening fruit of plums and cherries, so protection is beneficial. Andremember, these beasties are awake and feeding while we are in deep nod. The prunings ofraspberries can be shredded (or finely chopped up) and added to the compost.• Keep harvesting and devouring crops before they become tough, and there are some late vegcan still be sown under glass: Rocket, Endive, Chicory, spring Onion and spring Cabbage.Japanese Onions can be planted in September.• Keep Brassicas protected from pigeons, they will strip all the new growth.• August is a good month to “hedge”, so those shears need to be sharp and oiled.• Many shrubs will benefit from trimming back new growth, this will let the small shoots hardenbefore the Winter blasts. Hebes should be pruned back after flowering.• If dry, camellias need a good soak, they are now developing next year’s blossom.• If wet, you can start moving plants around the garden.• Now is the time to collect ripe seed. It is not necessary to collect weed seed - they spreadperfect well without help. That is unless a re-wilded garden is desired.• At the risk of sounding like a cracked record, keep head-heading.• Continue watering pots and new plantings, and keep fed.• We can’t let our Daisies droop, so keep herbaceous plants supported until they have finishedflowering.• Daffodils and other spring bulbs should be planted in September. Tulips are best planted inNovember. Buy fresh and plant fresh.• Cuttings of tender perennials such as Salvias or Penstemon can be taken in late Summer, theyneed to be kept moist and warm.• Remove the greenhouse shading.• Any bare ground will love some unctuous compost spread over it.• And, most importantly, if it’s hot just sit back and enjoy your garden, and ignore the weeds.We welcome any questions that you may have, and we'll do our best to help.We have been keen gardeners for over 30 years, opening our garden over 18 years for theNational Garden Scheme. Since moving to the New Forest area we have been recreating a largishgarden whilst getting used to the new soil conditions.Roger Please & Marian mention Peacock The Village - contact Voice email: when info@lymingtondirectory.co.ukresponding adverts27
