Recent heavy rains pushed down many of the branches of the New England Asters [Aster novae-angliae]. Using nylon cord, 2 green poles and the fence, provided support for the New England Asters bush.
While in the Sedum – Iris bed, removed the Morning Glories, Nutsedges and Violets that have grown up since the last weeding.
Completing this, went to the original bed and removed the many Morning Glories that have also grown up since the last weeding.
Since we had sprinkled Preen Extended Control Weed Preventer on the original bed on May 4, need to find out why this did not prevent the growth of the Morning Glories. Looking for the latter reference, noticed that we had also spread Preen on the Sedum – Iris bed on May 17-18. The number of Morning Glory plants in the Sedum – Iris bed was a lot smaller.
