Gardening

March/April - Fertilize lawn and shrubs with a 3-2-1 ratio, Sulpher coated urea with 1 lb. of nitrogen per 1000 sq. ft.  This fertilizer should last approximately 6-8 weeks before the next application.  Please follow manufactures’ direction on application rates.  Each manufacturer will have different rates for their fertilizer.  Spot spraying of broadleaf weeds can be made at this time.

Planting of tomatoes, peppers, corn and other summer vegetables can be done after the threat of freeze is over.

Plantings to enjoy - Summer flowers will be available in April at your local nursery.  We usually wait after Easter to start planting the warmer seasonal flowers.

These will be the most popular summer plants that can be found at your local retailer.  Do not plant Periwinkles or Peter Pan Zinnias until after June 1st.
