April 2008 Gardening Tips |
|
Here
are some tips to prepare your lawn and garden this month:
- Plan,
design, and create new landscape and garden beds, if desired.
- Keep a notebook / journal with all your garden information
in it.
- Transplant large trees and shrubs before mid April.
- In early April, cut back ornamental grasses (including liriope)
to within a few inches of the ground. New growth is about
to emerge.
- Plant annual seeds of asters, cosmos, marigolds, zinnias
in the garden.
- Set the blade on your lawnmower to cut the grass at 2 1/2
inches to avoid scalping.
- Fertilize your lawn this month, as long as the weather is
starting to warm.
- Carefully trim shrubs, as birds may be nesting inside. If
you see a bird's nest, leave the trimming for another time.
- One of the best hot-weather, summer plants is the periwinkle
(vinca). Prepare to plant these in May.
- Go for a walk in the woods or the park at least once each
season to enjoy a little bit of Mother Nature's gardening
handiwork.
- Celebrate Earth Day by adopting an earth-friendly practice
such as composting or using organic fertilizers and pesticides.
- Plant vegetable seeds of melons, squash, cucumber and sweet
corn directly into the garden.
- Plant pansies, violas and primroses for early spring color
in the landscape.
- Water enough to wet the soil 4” to 6” down. Grass
roots will grow deeper and the lawn will be healthier.
- Do not spray insecticides while fruits flower, in order
to protect the honeybees.
- Use a leaf rake, not an iron rake, to loosen up mats of
dead grass and remove debris that fell over the winter.
- Rotate indoor plants a quarter turn so all sides get sunlight
from a window.

to Seed Bare Spots And Thin Areas - Provided by Scotts
