How to mentain your Garden
While we’re on the topic of horsetail and dandelions, here’s a quick bit of info. (I hope I get this right.) According to Carmen (who does a cool job with the edibles at the Tofino Botanical Gardens,) horsetail is an excellent cleanser for your inner parts, and apparently helps pass fluid enzymes between your major organs. And I guess it’s important to keep all your inner workings squishy and healthy. And Dandelions… well they make excellent wine, and yellow kisses. For those unfamiliar with yellow kisses, they are made from squishing a dandelion flower against a friend’s cheek. So between the two weeds, you can get roasted on wine, kiss all your friends, and have the knowledge that you are internally functioning to the best of your ability. Sounds like a weekend at the lake.
June is still a good month to be planting seeds, beans, lettuce, radish, peas, basil and a few other goodies. It’s also a good month to start seeding for next year’s perennials, like Echinacea, lupines, and poppies.
Fertilize your clematis, roses and rhodos this month. A late spring, early summer lawn fertilizer is recommended as well. Plus, don’t forget to fertilize your hanging baskets on a regular basis. I get a lot of, “But I never remember to fertilize,” comments at the nursery so here are a couple methods to use: slow release basket fertilizer (one application needed), and temperature released. The biggest problem with the latter fertilizer is if it’s cold when you water, the fertilizer is non-acting. We use a combination of both temperature released fertilizer and a major dilution of water soluble 20-20-20, (approximately one teaspoon to eight litres water every time you water.)
And it’s time to prune back any flowered out perennials, to encourage a second blooming. Plant ornamental grasses so they can establish themselves in time to put on a fall show. Also, many shrubs can be pruned back by month end, after they’ve finished flowering. One thing to keep in mind is when certain shrubs (lilacs, for example) are pruned, they will lose next year’s blossoms on that particular branch. If you plan to prune your Montana clematis after blooming, this is the time to do it. But only a light pruning is recommended because it also blooms on previous year’s growth.
