What to Do in the Garden in June
A Regional Gardening Almanac

June is a month for graduations, weddings and garden pests. As beautiful as June can be, no sooner do your plants peak than the bugs find them. It’s a fact of gardening. So the gardener’s motto for June should be ‘Vigilance’!

June is a month for monitoring, whether it’s for Japanese beetles, fungus diseases, 4-Line Plant Bug damage or just to stay ahead of deadheading. Keeping up on your garden chores in June will lesson the load for the rest of the summer. Here are some tips from my garden. If you have any advice, we welcome you sharing it with us through the ‘Comment’ link below.
