August: Time to Give Your Trees a Checkup!
   
Tree - branches       The days are starting to get shorter and summer will end in not much more than a month! Soon it will be time to get out warmer clothes and jackets. Even though fall will be arriving soon and winter will follow, late August is a good time to give your outdoor trees a check up. With that in mind, head outdoors to soak up the last bit of the summer sun and give your trees a thorough check up.
       The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has officially named the month of August Tree Check Month. The USDA recommends tree owners to get outside and take a look at their trees for just 10 minutes. In such a small amount of time, you could save your tree's life. Two pests that you should check for-emerald ash borer (EAB) and Asian longhorned beetle (ALB)-that are destroying trees in several regions of the U.S. and Canada.

Succulents - Some Like It Hot
   
Cactus and succulent display at Hillermann Nursery & Florist       Succulents are booming in popularity for two simple reasons: they are beautiful and nearly indestructible. Technically, a succulent is any plant with thick, fleshy (succulent) water storage organs. Succulents store water in their leaves, their stems or their roots. Cacti are a unique subset of the succulent group. Succulents make excellent display plants in dish gardens. No matter what kind of succulent you're growing, the rules are pretty similar between the different species. Here are the general rules for growing top-quality succulents:
       Light: Succulents prefer bright light, such as found on a south-facing window. Full sun outdoors in spring and summer are also preferred, but you must slowly acclimate your plant to full outdoor conditions.
