If you are using the same space every year for your garden, use different annuals every season along with your perennials or wait a few years before planting the same thing in the same area.
Keep wide spaces between plants to help the leaves dry.
Plants need to be well fed from the beginning to keep them healthy.
Mulch your plants, mulching helps keep the soil moist along with keeping some weeds, insects and diseases from spreading.
Surround your plants with other plants that help to keep pests out.
Use insects that eat other insects but do not harm your plants.
Clean up the dead leaves quickly, this will help keep the disease from spreading.
Finally, and I can't say this enough, mulch, mulch, mulch
Good luck and Happy gardening :)Carnivorous Plants Horticulture and Home Pest News
