Thy Plight With August Blight


As with trash pails and Boston Ivy, the New Dawn rose wants to go in new directions.


The Maximilian sunflowers blighty as ever in the front yard -but not so much at the side garden.


Something I have yet to spot has been munching Grandma's rose, and along with that -yellow mottled leaves.


This spot under the New Dawn, always poor at this time -blechhh.


The large (for my yard) aster bed has hit its end. This spot has long frustrated me and this year's cold frame placed here made it worse. And then there's my upstairs neighbor's air conditioner -condensing on this spot all summer.


The poor aster, blighted more than previous years.


Yellow leaves, spots, blackened tips, but somehow keeps on.

  1. You could plant a water-loving plant under that AC condensation, or perhaps put a birdbath or bucket there to catch the water. It's a resource! :)

  2. I have some plants under it, but the constant dripping I think is not good for them. Its never enough water to soak the soil around the spot either. I think I will take the asters out I have there, and replace with something more upright and tolerant (hopefully) of the dripping. I don't want to encourage more Tiger Mosquitoes, so I don't want to collect it.

    The whole bed is a two feet space between a hot wall and a hot sidewalk in direct sun all day. Its a tough environment!
