When planting in summer, there are a few key elements to consider:
• Water the plants in their pots thoroughly a few hours before planting.
• Work and amend the soil well before planting to optimize rooting: use organic matter and well-aerated planting soil that drains well. Roots need water and air.
• Never "fill" the planting hole with water before planting, as this makes the hole walls more watertight and hinders drainage later.
• Plan for long-term, slow, and deep watering to soak the soil thoroughly.
• Remember to stop automated watering if the rain is abundant.

Mulch offers several advantages for plants:
• It maintains soil moisture at the base of the plants;
• It reduces runoff and promotes water percolation into the soil;
• It helps regulate the surface temperature of the soil where it is applied;
• It prevents the growth of unwanted plants and reduces the need for weeding and hoeing;
• It limits the transmission of foliage diseases (powdery mildew, downy mildew);
• It provides organic matter to the soil in the long term.

Pruning in hot weather? Yes, but not any variety and not in any way!
First, as much as possible, avoid doing it during heat waves. The aesthetics of your plants might suffer a bit from pruning. Then, it is necessary and beneficial, for example, to prune early-flowering shrubs, such as certain spireas, to remove dead flowers and to reshape the shrub. Pruning shrubs that flower on the previous year’s wood ensures a maximum number of flowers the following spring.
It is also possible to do corrective or formative pruning during the summer. And if in doubt, consult our experts who will advise you. |

Aphids are insects that suck the sap from the plants they infest. Opportunistic workers, ants protect aphid colonies and farm them to access the precious sweet honeydew they produce. To combat aphids ecologically, it's not necessary to attack the ants chemically. Simply make their task more difficult by using Protek Troncs, for example, on the tree trunks. Without their protectors, the aphid colonies will be attacked by birds, and ladybugs will lay their eggs nearby. Nature will take care of the rest and balance will be restored. |

On perennial plants, a strong jet of water, repeatedly, can dislodge part of the colonies while waiting for predator insects to do the rest of the work. Finally, in case of a severe infestation, consult us for the best strategy to adopt. |

When dealing with a pest problem, we are tempted to intervene. It’s important to be aware that no chemical intervention will target only harmful insects. By intervening too vigorously, we also eliminate our predator allies.
Most of us know at least one predator insect: the ladybug. Indeed, they feed directly on the aphid colonies we dislike so much.
Other predator insects are not as well liked, such as earwigs. In large numbers in humid areas, they can be a problem. However, in small quantities in the garden, these shadow predators eat larvae and harmful insects for us.
Here is a third ally of crops: the lacewing. This winged insect is a natural enemy of several crop pests, such as aphids, thrips, and scale insects. Its larvae are particularly active and voracious!
