Emergence of Spring

It is once again time for our hands to come to the aid of our gardens. Weeding out invasive garlic mustard and grasses. Fertilizing shrubs and trees with proper “food.”

My hydrangeas were calling to me this past week. We have 27 hydrangeas in “foster care”. Oh, they also enjoy my coffee grounds.

Spring care for lawn - first application prior to Easter is the general rule of thumb in our area. Ornamental and prairie grasses should be cut back by now to six inches. New growth visible by now. Enjoy the emergence of Spring!
