Gardening Checklist

Mar. 27 - Apr. 9, 2009

Install a drip irrigation system to water your garden. Think about the hours of “hose” time it will save you. These systems are available as drip, micro-spray, or bubbler or mist.
Mulch the root areas of shrubs and trees. Keep mulch at a 3 to 4 inch depth around them. Leave a 6-inch area clear around the trunk of the shrub or tree so it can “breathe”.
Build water basins around trees and shrubs.
Try something different this year – how about aquatic gardening? All you need is a pool or a pond. “Plant” a variety of water lilies, lotus, cat tails or water clover for a new slant on gardening.
If you have fruit bearing trees including olive, flowering crabapple, pear, plum and sweet gum, we have a safe, environmentally friendly technology that keeps the mess of dropping fruit off your grounds. Just call us.
Easter is in a few days – April 12th this year – plant Easter Lilies, blooming bulbs, brightly colored Azaleas and other holiday crops.
