Considering the dry conditions this year you should mulch around all your plants to reduce the amount of water you need to use. The mulch holds the moisture in the ground and reduces evaporation leaving more available too the plants. Remember that it is better for trees in particular to have deep soakings 2 to 3 times a week rather than daily short watering. This will get a deeper root system and produce a tree that can withstand the long hot days much better than one that is watered daily for short periods. If you are seeing stress from the heat such as burned leaf edges, flowers fading quickly, wilting, etc., give your plants a deeper soaking …

Vegetable Gardens By now you should be getting vegetables from your garden. Watch for tomato worms. Use caterpillar killer on them or pick them off and kill. Water your garden well about 2 to 3 times a week. Give it a good deep soaking when you water. You may need to fertilize one time this time of year. If you are suffering blossom end rot, add calcium. Harvest regularly to keep your garden producing. Hopefully it looks full now and not like the beginning of the season. Water Mulch Mulch Mulch Water With the summer heat comes the need for watering.

Gardening tips for July I want to start with talking about the hillside display garden we have been working on here at the nursery. We started it two summers ago with the clearing of the blackberries and poison oak and have put in paths and benches and really nice landscaping. This spring we added a garden railroad. When you come in, please take a little time to walk through it. Cross the bridge you see in the picture above and you are there. Tell us what you think. If you have more time, bring a lunch or a snack and enjoy the picnic table or the benches and relax a bit. If any groups would like to use the area to hold meetings, we would be happy to have you use it. Just let us know. Or for any other reason you would like to use it. It really is beautiful. We have had quite a few pretty warm days so far this summer. However, today as I write this, it is very nice. We have been watering two and three times a day here lately to make sure all the plants look good. And thanks to the hard work …
