- daffodils cut off only when the leaves are completely drawn in, it usually takes a while for the tulips too. Just shorten the stems here. If you remove the leaves, there will be no flowering in the coming year. If the plants are in beds that are watered, it is better to dig them up in the summer and store them in a dry place. Tulips need a dry period.
- peonies are in bloom. After the flowers have faded, never cut off the leaves, only the seeds, if at all. If you leave them as they are, you will have decorative items for the dried bouquet in the fall.
- balcony plants – and also the potted plants – fertilize.
- vegetable garden provided with an extra portion of organic fertilizer (nettle manure). Now the main growing season begins.
- cut hedgesbut be careful that bird nests are no longer “inhabited”.
- book should now also be cut, but not in the blazing sun. Cloudy days are better, otherwise the foliage will burn. Check for borers – spray XenTari if infested.
