WHEN WILL IT RAIN!?
The Greater Toronto Area hasn't seen significant rainfall in over a month and the plants are starting to show the effects of drought.
Your grass is the colour of Shredded Wheat and the heat is making it a struggle to keep your plants happy. What to do?
Jack, Lynne and Matt McFarland focus on water wise plants on this week's episode of The Growing Season.
Lynne has changed how she's watering her flower beds. She describes how and the results thus far. Maybe it's time for many of us to shift what we've been doing.
What happens if a plant sheds it leaves due to drought? Will it rebound?
Matt develops a theory on-air.
Where is the driest place on earth?
Many trees on our client's properties have started to shed their leaves NOW. Is this normal? Why would trees do this at this time of the year?
A lawn can go three months without water and fully rebound so there is no need to panic.
Hedges and their extensive watering needs are discussed.
Trichomes, or "plant hairs" and their functions are highlighted. You wouldn't believe how a hairy leaf is used.
Trees and the water transport systems become a focus. How is soooo much water transported up and down in the tree's internal systems?
A quick clip on drip tips...
Wind, river pebbles and everything in between features.
STOP CUTTING YOUR LAWN WHEN IT IS THIS DRY. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, STOP!
Tune in.
