Riding the storm can be a breeze
Article Abstract:
Extreme weather conditions can cause considerable damage to gardens in spring. High winds can snap the shoots of vulnerable plants, and for this reason it is advisable to stake these plants as a precaution. It is important to remember that plants, even those that seem to have the same habit of growth, exhibit very different tolerances of wind. It is worth considering planting clematis, as this plant withstands wind very well, even though it looks fragile.
