| August's Plant Highlight
Talking Gardening with Doug Ornamental grasses are putting on quite a show here in August. Personally, there is one ornamental grass that is a standout above all other grasses. It is SCHIZACHYRIUM ‘STANDING OVATION’ or commonly called “Little Bluestem.” The name is very fitting for this grass because it does stand out amongst all other grasses. Little Bluestem is a native cultivar to North America. It was discovered in Pennsylvania and is hardy from zones 3 to 8. Here are some more interesting tidbits with Standing Ovation. | |

| Deadheading Plants will go to seed once their blooms are finished. That's nature. If left alone a flowering plant would bloom, that bloom would then be fertilized and set seed. In this reproductive cycle the plant expends all its energy and nutrients to set seed instead of producing more flowers. But a trick called “deadheading” will stop the plant from setting seed too soon. Remove the faded flowers from the plant by pinching off the flower head. Now the plant will spend its energy producing more flowers instead of seed! Deadheading will not only encourage many more flowers it will create a longer blooming period. Learn more | |
