Tips of the Week
- Prune evergreens, roses, trees.
- Plant evergreens and trees.
- You may want to wait to cut back tropicals or perennials that are frost-tender (like shrimp plant)
- Clumping, ornamental grasses: that is a personal choice. Prune now or later.
- Don't dig up supposedly “dead” plants. It is way too early for many of them to send out new growth.
- Plant potatoes.
- Start warm season vegetables indoors. This includes tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant.
- Apply weed pre-emergents like corn gluten. Do not apply in areas that you plan to seed with flowers or vegetables!
