Heat Wave Garden Tips
Water Early
1. Water early in the morning to reduce evaporation & ensure water reaches the roots. Set your plants up for success by giving them water before the day's heat.
Made in the Shade
2. Protect your plants by moving them to protected, cooler spots in the shade to reduce heat damage.
Extra Water
3. Water more than usual. Give your plants an extra drink of water in the evening if they look wilted or if the soil is dry - they will thank you!
Mulch Magic
4. Add mulch to your containers and beds to regulate soil temperature and maintain moisture. A thick layer of natural mulch will help your garden through even the trickiest heat wave.
