Tips of the Week
-
Protect your perennials with compost or mulch. I like compost a little better because it has a smaller aggregate to it, so fills the spaces above the soil and protects the roots a little better from the cold. Compost also adds nutrients as it leaches into your soil over winter.
-
Plant spring-blooming bulbs
-
Plant winter annuals
-
Continue cutting back perennials
-
Take cuttings from greenery in your garden to fill vases or make holiday swags.
