Summer is full of so many spe-
cial events from graduations,
birthdays, holidays, and weddings
for example and most are planned
around being outside in and
amongst our gardens, patios, and
decks. And what we all want is for
our plants to be looking and per-
forming at their best. We want lots
of color to appease the eyes, pleas-
ant aromas to enhance the senses,
and a relaxing environment so
everyone feels comfortable. We
want to give everyone a pleasant
and memorable experience.
The problem lies in trying
to keep things looking this way
