Beautiful Blooms at the Beginning of June



Roses, Clematis, Early-Blooming Daylily, Daisies, Peonies, Iris...and so many other perennials are in bloom right now.  


June Garden Calendar:


  • Divide Spring Bloomers after flowers fade.  This includes Bearded Iris and Oriental Poppies.


  • Deadhead Perennials to keep the garden tidy and to limit disease, reduce reseeding, and for later blooms.


  • Because perennials need 1 inch of water per week right now, water if rainfall is scarce.  Check container perennials frequently to access water needs.


  • Pinch Asters and Chrysanthemums one last time before the Fourth of July.


  • Plant Fall-Flowering Perennials.
