Nature’s
Umbrella –
During the hot
summer weather, give tender veggies a mid-day reprieve from the sun
by planting them under the canopy of existing larger plants. Mature
Brussels sprouts, artichokes, and tree kale all can provide shade
for delicate greens. Plant your seeds or transplants just under the
outer leaves of these towering beauties, and while they will still
get plenty of sun, they will be less inclined to bolt to seed.
