The garden in August
Lawn – in summer set the mower one notch higher and don’t mow the lawn during great heat, as it could burn. Regularly water the lawn during dry spells, best during the evening hours.
Starting end of August it is possible to make new plantings, the plants have enough time to root well until winter comes.

Garden tip from Kurt:
Move tender Mediterranean plants to a sheltered spot before freeze and wrap them up, in particular to protect their roots.
