    Honey-Do-List

    Here's a quick list of some things that need to be done this week:

  • Fertilize fuchsias & tuberous begonias with fish emulsion.

  • Dust grapes with sulfur for powdery mildew and bunch rot.

  • Take the lawnmowers in for an annual check-up to and sharpen the blades at the same time. A well-maintained lawn-mower will use less gas, and pollute less. Sharpening the blades makes for a cleaner cut that will heal without any die-back. If your lawn isn't looking very "clean" after the mowing, it is often because the blades need sharpening.

  • Dead-head your roses, annual beding plants, and summer perennials to encourage repeat blooming through the summer. Deadheading means just cutting off the faded & spent flowers. It's usually a good idea to fertilize after deadheading to spur even more blooms.
