Gardening is a seasonal experience. By that I mean that there is something different to experience in every season of the year. Spring of course is a fabulous time for the northwest with rhododendrons, azaleas, flowering cherries, dogwoods, daffodils and tulips just to name a few. Fall isn’t too shabby either with a decent display of fall color in the vine maples and sumacs and some fall blooming perennials like mums and asters and of course one cannot forget the ornamental grasses. Winter even has a few highlights for us in the likes of witch hazel, hellebores, Sarcococca, and winter Daphne. But summer, oh glorious summer, may just be the most stupendous of all.

There’s nothing quite like a summer squall to remind us that some plants need a little help standing up on their own. Last week’s rains did just that for me. My garden was proud and perky and standing tall before Mother Nature dropped three quarters of an inch of rain on it. The weight of all that water on the foliage caused limbs to bow down, sometimes all the way to the ground, and in some cases even snap off. It wasn’t a pretty sight and yet I could have prevented a lot of it had I just done some preventative staking.
