Ash is raining down on us and our gardens. Have you checked your outdoor plants lately to see just how much ash is coating the leaves? Ash can sometimes be beneficial in small amounts contributing trace elements to plants, but a slightly thicker layer can interfere with photosynthesis.

When we moved into our home in Vacaville, back in 2012, we inherited a stunning garden. It has been so much fun getting to know all of the plants, some of which are quite sensitive while others are very robust.
