1.
Take it easy wth any kind of de-icer/salts around plants. If you
must use them, be careful of any runoff into plants, lawn or surface
water. Better to use fertilizer.
2. Be certain to rotate houseplants weekly to keep them
uniform in shape and growth.
3. While you're at it, keep houseplat leaves free of dust. A
shower now and then should do the trick!
4. Haven't put n your plow stakes? May be too late if the
ground is frozen.
5. Always keep bird feeders stocked for the winter. Plus an
unfrozen water source is a real treat for our feathered friends.
6. Avoid walking on frozen turf; bare
spots next spring could be used as evidence!
7. Seed catalogs are arriving daily.
Before you order, look back at last year's garden. If you kept a journal
(how many times did we talk about this) it will be easy to remember what
to grow and not to grow!
8. Need some flower power in your
life? A visit to a local botanic garden could be ust what th edoctor
ordered! Many offer indoor greenhouses and conservatories for public
enjoyment and education.
9. Recycle your Christmas tree - use
cut branches as mulch in the garden. Another use: prop the tree up in an
area of your garden and let the birds find shelter. Locate a bird feeder
nearby for encouragement.
10. Check stored canna, dahlia and
other summer flowering bulbs for sgns of rot. Dispose as necessary.
