Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

By the time August rolls around, most of the summer bloomers are winding down and feeling the heat. Very soon, autumn will be upon us, and once again, we will look toward preparing the garden for spring. But, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. There are still some lovely fall-blooming flowers you can plant in August. These flowers will keep your garden blooming until frosts.

August is a time when many gardens can start to look a bit tired, but with a little care, you can keep the blooms coming well into late summer! One of the best ways to encourage more flowers is through the simple process of deadheading.
