"My gardens are colourless in August, I guess that's how it is."

We hear this all the time.  So many of our clients echo these sentiments.

But. It's. Not. True!

The Growing Season's Jack, Lynne and Matt McFarland dive into "August All-Stars," the plant materials you can implement into your landscape that take centre stage in the only month that begins with "A."

Scabiosa, Rose Of Sharon, Black Eyed Susie, Cone Flower, Sedum, Shasta Daisy and many more are just some of the planties you can use to August up your garden.  The McFarlands dive into them all!

The trio also chat about the "biological dimmer switch" that plants use to turn flowering off and on.  It's pretty cool.
