making plans to redecorate the gardenMy garden has been suffering through a long period of heat lately. We went from a cool, rainy June into this dry,hot weather. I have been watering a lot more than usual to keep up with plant's needs, especially the shrubs that I added this spring. The temperatures have been hovering in the high 90s mostly with the past couple days reaching into the triple digits. Ugh... In my backyard, the corner that was visibly changed by the removal of the big, old Pine is undergoing some stress. I was out early today, to beat the sun's heat to deadhead some Heucheras and Hostas. They are looking a bit scorched. I have decided to find new shadier homes for them. Earlier this spring, I already relocated several Astilbe, Hosta, and Heuchera. Now I am searching for spots to put the poor long suffering kids so they can do their best and thrive., but I'm going to wait until it cools off some. The bright side is that I have realized that I will have room to plant more, and I will be able to add some sun lovers for a change! This blog entry has been viewed 1650 times

Things are happening there, eh Kay? It is a stressy time for plants during droughty conditions, that's for sure. I am glad that you could get some plants transplanted. Have you got any idea what you are going to be planting in that new sunny place?
Hi Sjoerd! Yes, it is stressy for plants right now. Although it only got up to 89°F today.
That sounds great Kay
