Gardening Tips from Lynn

When is the Right Time to Mulch?
In the fall, blow all your leaves into the gardens and mulch over the top of them just before the snow flies.
In the spring, let the snow melt, and you’ll see all the fresh mulch that you put down in the fall!
Tips on Deciding What Plants Will Look Best?
Just like in the art world, color, line, and texture are the same schemes to use in the gardens!
What’s Your Potting System?
In pots, remember,
“Thriller”
The statement plant
“Filler”
What goes around the thriller plant
“Spiller”
What hangs over the edges of the pot
When Should I Preen?
You should use a weed seed inhibitor like Preen three times a year. Use these memorable dates to stay on track!
– Memorial Day
– 4th of July
– Labor Day
How Do I Trim Shrubs?
Always take caution when trimming shrubs. Only trim about 1/3 off and leave the rest.
