Garden Affair : Protecting plants from Summer heat

 Summer is intensifying with every day  passing by summer heat is soaring with rise in  high temperatures. 

It becomes difficult to protect Plants from heat wave and scorching summer period. While drought resistant plants can withstand this heat it is imperative to protect plants from direct sunlight and strong heat waves . 

Here are few important steps one should take to protect plants from direct exposure of heat from summer


          -    Green     Shades for plants                             


Creating a dome like environment through green shade helps in protecting plants from summer heat. Green shades help in saving plants from direct exposure of sunrays.                                                   






- Adding light mulch onto the soil helps in maintaining moisture in the soil for longer period of time which keeps plant cool and  soil wet for longer period that helps from harsh summer.      


       
                                   - Watering plants in the morning helps them in retaining moisture for whole day and thereby save plants from drying out in the summer .                                                                                               
It is the time for link up party Garden Affair where we can share posts related to Gardening, Nature and birds. The link up party will remain open for a week starting from saturday.

  6. In our area, overwintering the plants in cold temperatures is still the bigger problem - but the summers are getting hotter and hotter here, too. Your tips are always very valuable.
