"Midsummer" reminder
Technically, it's not midsummer until August 9 or so. Why do they
say that summer starts in June? It seems to me that the longest day
ought to mark the middle of the summer. That way, summer is the season
with the most sunlight. Except that doesn't explain why July and August
seem hotter than June.
Anyway, this is to remind you that now is the time to cut down
certain plants to half the height. Sedum 'Autumn Joy' is one;
fall-blooming chrysanthemums are another. (Is Chrysanthemum still called
Dendranthema? Name change is bad enough; why change its gender?)
