Summer gardening tips for New England
June is a transitional month for gardening, focusing on maintaining plants established earlier in the season amid limited rainfall. Gardeners are advised to water deeply once or twice weekly if no water restrictions exist and to choose late-summer blooming plants like butterfly weed, Joe Pye weed, black-eyed Susans, echinacea, and wild bergamot for added color. Drought conditions may cause lawns to go dormant, and gardeners should avoid fertilizing during dormancy, while remaining vigilant against pests and plant diseases.
