Gardening Tips!

Pruning Tip:

When your azaleas, dogwoods or rhododendron blooms are spent, that is the time to prune to encourage new growth for a healthier plant and larger blooms next year. Fertilize with an acid loving fertilizer like Holly Tone at the same time. Feed again in the fall.

Picking Flowers

When picking flowers from your garden, do so early in the morning or late in the afternoon. Cool them quickly by placing them in a bucket of water left in a cool place for an hour or so. This is especially important in hot summer weather.

Pruning a Hydrangea?

Do I leave the flower heads on until I prune? The proper timing to prune hydrangeas depends on what type of hydrangea you are growing. Bigleaf hydrangeas produce blooms on previous years growth. Prune back stems that have flowered to about 2 feet high, right after they finish blooming. As Pee Gee hydrangeas flower on new growth, they should be pruned in early spring to about 6 - 12" height. Oak leaf hydrangeas require very little pruning but can be pruned in early spring.
