June Tasks

It should now be safe to plant out remaining bedding, including those cannas and dahlias.
Ensure net cages over soft fruit, peas and any other vulnerable veg are secure, without access holes for mice or pigeons.
Remove suckers (growth from the roots) from roses, lilac and other suckering shrubs.
Remove spring bulb foliage when it will pull away easily.
Remove alge and blanket weed from ponds etc before it becomes a problem
Start dead heading flowers.
Make sure that tall border plants are adequately supported: pea sticks or canes and string are usually sufficient.
