- Lay the finished flower stalks of Foxglove on the ground where you want new plants to grow or sprinkle the seeds from the dried pods.
- Continue to keep the soil around your shasta daisies and ferns moist but not wet. Ferns may become dormant if they get to dry.
- Continue to water container plants daily, as needed. Make sure you have provided adequate drainage. Feed every two weeks.
- Continue to weed flower beds. Remove faded blooms.
- Keep a close eye on your Nasturtium for aphids.
- Pick Sweet Peas regularly to encourage more blooms.
- Sow Alpine, Oriental and Iceland Poppies outdoors in a seedbed. Add compost or manure to Oriental Poppies.
- Pick fresh flowers for indoors. This will also encourage more blooms on most perennials.
- Remember to keep your strawflowers well watered. Try not to get the flowers wet when watering.
