Surviving the Maltese Summer: Plant Edition

We already know its not a good idea to water your plants in the midday sun. More than this though, watering in summer is less about frequency and more about efficiency.

Drip systems, sprinklers, and misters from Laflafett help reduce evaporation and deliver water directly to the roots—especially important for potted plants that dry out fast.

Check for blockages or leaks while you're at it. A well-maintained system saves time, money, and wilting leaves.

Even plants need a break from the blazing sun. Lightweight shading solutions or strategic placement near walls can offer relief.

Laflafett stocks shading nets and breathable covers that help protect your plants without cutting off airflow completely.

Heat and humidity are prime time for pests. Don’t wait until it’s too late.

With biopesticides, beneficial insects like bumblebees and ladybugs, and sustainable pest control products, Laflafett helps you keep pests in check the natural way.

If you’re lucky enough to have a greenhouse, don’t forget it needs extra care in summer. Add ventilation, misting fans, or shade netting to prevent overheating. Laflafett’s galvanized steel greenhouses are built for all seasons—just give them a seasonal tune-up.

From technical tips to product support, Laflafett is here to help your plants beat the heat. Call 9940 3342 or visit the store for expert advice and a cooler, greener summer.
