Focus On Flowers
At this time of the year the graceful cimicifugas point their spires of tiny white flowers towards the sky.
Plants that have flower spikes are useful as they provide vertical interest both in the gardens and in a vase.
Many August bloomers are majestic erect plants that match the color of the sun and luxuriate in its heat.
Even if you have just a small garden made up primarily of annuals, you can still make wonderful floral centerpieces for your dinner table.
Sounds brutal, but dead-heading is important for promoting new growth.
