What Can Go Wrong with Tomatoes & How To Fix It
Bonnie's Garden
I've had so many customers come in recently with tomatoes in their hands because they have a problem with the fruit. If you're growing tomatoes, here is a list of what you may find, the cause, and how to mitigate the problem.
Tomato Problems and How To Fix Them
Some Plants Like It Hot!
As the summer heat continues its hold over our area, you may notice some of your spring plantings beginning to wilt, droop, and look sad. Fortunately, there are many plants that not only tolerate but love the hot weather. 
8 Great Plants That Like It Hot
Dog Days of Summer
Doug's Blog
So, why do we refer to this time of year as the Dog Days of Summer? The dog days are not just about our dogs starting to pant or us starting to complain about the heat.  During trying times like we are experiencing now with the extreme heat and very little rainfall, we need to be water-wise for the sake of our plants.
Watering Tips for the Dog Days of Summer
Blossom End Rot 
Nothing is more disheartening than grabbing a beautiful tomato only to find the entire bottom is soft, black, and rotten. Blossom end rot (BER) affects tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, squash, and melons. Caused by insufficient calcium and uneven water during the rapid growth of the plant and its fruit, BER is easily avoidable with the proper precautions.
What To Do for Blossom End Rot
Ornamental Grasses 
Ornamental grasses are available in a wide array of colors, shapes, textures and sizes. Full sun is best for most ornamental grasses. Varieties such as Andropogon, Calamagrostis, and Cortaderia are very drought tolerant.

Summer color
 
Despite a month of heat and drought until the recent week, the garden is quite glorious to my eye, in particular for early August when the worst is expected. Yes, the lawn is worn, part brown, at least those areas not overrun by lush expanses of clover, but that is not much of a bother.
 
The garden remains colorful, though certainly not to compare to May, and sunny parts are alive with swallowtails, bees, and wasps. The few Japanese beetles (only a few) have gone, and the area surrounding the koi pond is lively with dragonflies defending their ill defined territories.
