Practice Patience

It's tempting to jump right in and start pruning or even removing seemingly damaged plants, but resist the urge! Give your plants a few days to adjust to the drastic changes. They might surprise you with their resilience.

Prioritize Drainage

Excess water is a plant's enemy. Ensure your soil can drain properly and start to dry out. Prolonged waterlogging can quickly lead to root rot and other issues.

Feed Your Thirsty Plants

Once the soil begins to dry, it's time to nourish your plants! Heavy rains often strip essential nutrients from the soil. Replenishing these is crucial for their recovery and future growth. We have a fantastic line of plant food that will help your plants thrive all season long!

Assess and Act

After the soil has dried, take a closer look at each plant. This is when you can decide if pruning is necessary to encourage new growth, or if, unfortunately, a plant didn't make it and needs to be removed.
