Planting in July

If you're anything like me, you're just not ready to call the garden "done". I will be planing up until the first frost, if I have my way! Planting in July is certainly not unheard of and there are some plants that will do better in the summer heat than others. 

July brings to the garden hot summer days and plenty of sunshine for July-loving flowers to enjoy while growing. Grown in dozens of varieties, each with its own distinct shape, size and bloom color, July-blooming flowers are a staple in the garden when moist other plants have died down for the season. Oftentimes July flowers are drought-tolerant and require limited moisture during the summer, creating a low maintenance unfussy plant to grow throughout the garden.
