Hurricane season brings high winds and heavy rain that can devastate an unprepared garden. A few precautions can help your plants weather the storm.
Secure Container Plants
Move potted plants to a sheltered spot like a garage or against a wall to protect them from wind damage.
Prune Before the Storm
Removing dead or weak branches ahead of a storm reduces the risk of breakage and flying debris.
Watch for Standing Water
Heavy rain can leave beds waterlogged; good drainage helps prevent root rot after a major storm.
After the Storm
Check plants for damage once it's safe, and remove broken branches promptly to prevent disease and pest issues.
