It's been a while since we've added to the garden blog. We've been letting things grow and nature take its course. The fact is, there's lots that can be done during this month. Here's a few tasks we've come up with from the experts.
Pinch back any annuals, Fuchsias, Geraniums, Cosmos or any other plants that might be getting a little leggy.
Check your roses for mildew, aphid, black-spot or other insect or disease problems and if they appear take steps to control them right away.
Start any of the warm weather vegetables (Corn, Beans, Peppers, Egg Plant, Tomatoes, Squash, Pumpkins, etc.) as soon as possible.
Fertilize the lawn this month. Use a complete lawn fertilizer with a 3-1-2 ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium.
Keep the weeds pulled, before they have a chance to flower and go to seed again. Otherwise, you will be fighting newly germinated weed seed for the next several years.
