Five things to do in the garden this week: 1. Heavy rain leaches salt and other compounds from the soil that inhibit growth and flower production.

Four tall, scruffy creatures amble through a storybook forest. They walk, they eat, they build shelter, and repeat. The group exchanges a wordless cacophony of grunts, screams, and whoops to communicate, but we are not privy to their conversations. Like a silent movie, we figure out the meaning of their language through movement, changes in…
