Gardener’s Almanac: Aug. 17 – Late Summer Garden Clean-up

Gardener’s Almanac: Aug. 17 – Late Summer Garden Clean-up

Time for a late summer garden clean-up. Garden Supervisor Adam Glas reviews some late summer weeds and perennials in need of a cut back.

Tune into the Gardener’s Almanac each week to learn what we are doing in the garden at this moment. Learn from Scott Arboretum staff which plants we are pruning, planting, weeding and which pests we are monitoring and removing right now. This virtual almanac is a great week by week reference guide for gardeners.
