– Using a watering can with a fine rose for gentle soaking
✂️ Pinch Out Tomato Sideshoots

🔨 Stake Tall or Floppy Plants
Plants like delphiniums, and lupins may need staking to keep them upright in wind and rain. Use bamboo canes or support rings to protect your blooms.
🌱 Hoe Borders to Keep Weeds Down
Regular hoeing on dry days keeps weeds at bay and gives your plants the best chance to thrive. A few minutes a day makes all the difference!
✂️ Prune Spring-Flowering Shrubs
Shrubs that bloomed in spring, like forsythia, chaenomeles, and spirea, can be pruned now to encourage healthy new growth for next year.
