There’s no rest so this is the wrong time for the gar dener to be weary in well doing However, every task done is some thing accomplished and will show results throughout the year. Your attention is here called to a few important jobs that should be done now. One of the most important things to remember is water, water water everywhere! Sometimes the once-a-week watering is too much but usually our summers are so dry that frequent watering is necessity. This applies to annuals, perennials, roses and even shrubs especially shrubs that are of spring or summer planting. Roses must be dusted continually for insects and black spot. Use a good all-purpose rose dust. Prune rambling roses as soon as they stop blooming. Cut to keep them the size you desire and cut out old bare unattractive canes. Leave the young canes to pro duce blooms next year. Everbloom- ing climbing roses are pruned la ter, in late winter or early spring. Mulch roses and all shrubs rath er heavily. Mulching helps to con trol weeds and grass and conserv es moisture. Pine straw, leaves, cotton hulls, well-rotted sawdust, and other materials make gooc mulch. Plant Diseases that appear in hot weather are best controlled by santitation. Cut out all dead stalks and diseased foliage. Check for mildew, blights, and insects, and use proper control. Annuals for fall blooms may be planted now—marigolds, zin nias, cosmos, petunias, nicotiana, agertum and others. The blooming season of most flowering annuals can be prolonged by never letting them produce seed. Pinch off the blossoms when they begin to fade. Shrubs: To help Nandina and other berry producing shrubs keep and mature their berries, apply double handful of phosphate fer tilizer to the bushes. If you have neglected to prune your shrubbery - especially early blooming shrubs—do it now. Keep all shrubs shaped and in good ap pearance by snipping off twigs and branches that are unsightly and get out of hand. If a shrub needs sever pruning, do it now, though most severe pruning is best done while the plants are dormant. Prune Wisteria now. Cut back long, leggy growth to six or seven nodes. Propagation: Make semi-soft wood cutting for propagation. These cuttings should be taken from this year’s growth as soon as you can make a snap and a clean break when the twig is bent. Root in sand or beneculite in a flat or a well protected bed outside. Iris should be divided and re planted. Cut back leaves to about 6 inches, divide roots or under ground stems so that a pajrt of root is attached to each clump of leaves. Day lilies may be treated the same way. House Plants can be cut back and new plants started for fall and winter indoor use. Most house plants grow from stem cut tings. Bulbs: Now is a good time to study seed catalogs and begin to think about ordering your daffo dils. Study colors, varieties, and cultural methods and be ready to make your selections for next spring’s blossoms. $5 love and affection. John Robert Suber Sr. to Mild red C.
