July brings a mesmerizing warm summer glow to gardens. As well as being a time to stand back and admire, it is also a month to keep pruning. There are some important trimming tasks to do this month that will ensure your garden is full of glorious flowers for longer.
It is a month for regular deadheading in your beds, borders, and containers to keep the blooms coming, and you can cut back early-flowering perennials for a second flush of flowers. Also, shrubs and climbers that flower in late spring and early summer need trimming to produce the best display next year.
