登山者s that run far beyond their allotted 領土 can become 損失ing nuisances. If you have a rambling rose or a vigorous honeysuckle creeping under your eaves, 行為/法令/行動する now.?

削減(する) such 工場/植物s 支援する, not to the ground, but far enough to keep them where you want them to grow. You can tidy them a little more later in the year. But for now, it's important to 妨げる a small problem from becoming a big one.?

工場/植物s covering your house 塀で囲むs can be surprisingly sneaky. So check any downpipes and pull out long 茎・取り除くs that have been growing out of sight. ?

いつかs TV or wi-fi server cables are 隠すd behind downpipes, so make sure you don't 切断する one of those.?

はびこる clematis such as C. armandii and C. montana are 特に nifty about running over ground, before climbing nearby 塀で囲むs, 盗品故買者s or trees.?

So check borderbacks or shrubberies for wandering 工場/植物s. Vigorous 登山者s which are ありそうもない to 原因(となる) 害(を与える) are better left until summer's end. That 適用するs to rambling and climbing roses, summer jasmine, rep eat-flowering honeysuckles and others.

RESTART PERENNIALS?

Penstemons and several other perennials flower 早期に in summer, but lose their mojo by 中央の to late July. Tall campanulas and 早期に-flowering achilleas do that, 同様に as 確かな daisies. Try cutting some or all of them 支援する.?

Make your 削減(する) の近くに to the base of the 工場/植物. Doing that will 軽く押す/注意を引く healthy 工場/植物s into producing new flowering shoots. Those will develop over the coming few weeks to 供給(する) a fresh, colourful show. But beware ― many 早期に perennials don't re-flower.

BIG EUPHORBIAS NEED TAMING

Tall euphorbias ― 特に E. char acias ― will be carrying ugly, dead or dying 茎・取り除くs from last winter. Those should be 除去するd. Make your 削減(する) as の近くに to the ground without 損失ing the base of the 工場/植物.?

Euphorbias exude an unpleasant and 有毒な latex at the point where the 茎・取り除く is 削減(する). If you don't wash that off your secateurs as soon as you've finished cutting, their blades will become sticky and unpleasant to use.

?Hot water and an old nail 小衝突 are helpful here. When they're clean, wipe them. Leave your secateurs somewhere warm to 乾燥した,日照りの. Finally, use mineral oil to lubricate the join.

PLANT OF THE WEEK BUDDL EJA DAVIDII?

No 陳謝s for 指名するing an old favourite. ありふれた as 不成功の 首相 wannabes and almost as colourful, buddleja is as much for バタフライs as for people. From July, the flower 長,率いるs carry hundreds of small flowers.

Each bloom is 負担d with nectar and is as fragrant by day as after dark. Any shrub that can 侵略する 鉄道 lines with such zest has to be 平易な to grow. There are lovely varieties with flowers in rosy mauve, soft lilac blue or white.?

Grow buddleja in 十分な sun almost anywhere. For バタフライ attraction, prune it 支援する hard every year in late March.

QUESTION

?My clematis 工場/植物s are 病んでいる. The older leaves have a grey surface and are becoming deformed. Even the flower buds seem to lose colour and don't open 適切に. They were doing 井戸/弁護士席 until recently.?

Mrs D. 年上の, 物陰/風下d.

?The problem is powdery mildew. In many 地域s, clematis grew 極端に 井戸/弁護士席 during the 早期に part of the growing season. That was 原因(となる)d by plentiful rain and excellent growing 条件s.

?More recently, 過度の heat and now 干ばつ have made all that lush growth 攻撃を受けやすい to mildew. That is partly why the 病気 has struck varieties which usually stay clean and healthy.?

Water their roots 定期的に. Do that in the 早期に morning, before 気温s have risen. If you water them later in the day, take care to 避ける wetting the leaves.
