July IS A GOOD TO TIME TO ... Those down the bottom of the South Island should prune in August. Roses start shooting in August, so to get them ready add some lime to the soil to sweeten it (any rain will wash the fertiliser in). While you’re tending to your roses – add some organic manure too.

Spray your deciduous trees (the trees that lose their leaves every year) with lime sulphur. The lime sulphur acts by burning off the over wintering fungi and pests, including mites. It’s very important you do this for gooseberry bushes because they are prone to catching mites which can eat out the flower buds, meaning your bush ends up with no fruit. Luckily, the lime sulphur will get rid of those mites. Don’t apply it to your apricot trees because they can be sensitive to lime, so it’s best just to avoid it. Now’s also a good time to head along to one of the NZ Rose Society’s free rose pruning demonstrations. Visit their website for details on where and when they’re on. Roses should be pruned between late June and mid August, depending on where you live. If you live in the north you’ll prune your roses first.
You could also add some compost and lime to the soil of your vege garden. If the soil is quite wet, wait until it has dried out a bit. If you haven’t planted your shallots and garlic yet you’ve still got time – but get them in quick! The earlier you get your garlic in, the more likely it is to survive an attack of rust – which was quite a problem for garlic growers last year.

crop like lucerne or mustard. These plants will help provide a natural fertiliser for your soil by adding nitrogen. When spring comes simply dig in the plants to your soil. Don’t grow mustard if you’ve had a problem with club root in the soil, as it’s part of the same family that is affected by club root. If you think your vege garden could do with some improving. July is a great time to take it to the ‘next level’. A raised vege garden makes it easier for your plants to grow (because you can fill it with good quality potting mix, compost and/or mulch) and it makes it easier for you to garden (there’s less need to dig over like you would with a regular garden bed, and it’s higher off the ground so less bending and back-breaking required). You can use something like old railway sleepers to build your garden higher or try building some planter boxes. Once you’ve finished your raised
vegetable and herb garden, fill it with quality potting mix, compost and/or mulch – basically any good garden feed you’ve got. Then replant it with seedlings like spinach and broccoli. If you have compost you should be turning it over around now. Keep your compost covered to protect it from the heavy winter rain by using a sheet of polythene or some old corrugated iron. Add some lime – to stop it smelling – and some blood and bone to give it fertiliser. Your herbaceous perennials will probably have gone dormant (no leaves) by now, so dig them up, split the plants apart and replant them – great for expanding your garden. Even if they are still flowering, it’s still fine to split them at this time. Rake the leaves off your lawn. Lastly, make sure you deadhead your annuals – like polyanthus and primulas – so they don’t get mushy in the middle.
Planning on planting potatoes? Get your soil ready by digging it over and adding some lime.
