Monthly Tips!

Plant Warm-Season Vegetables and Annuals

Before transplanting seedlings started indoors, harden them off by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week. This process minimizes transplant shock and enhances their chances of thriving.​

Feed Your Plants

The burst of spring growth can quickly deplete soil nutrients.

Applying fertilizer just before a rainstorm can help the nutrients seep into the soil more effectively.​

Divide Overcrowded Perennials

Spring is an excellent time to divide perennials like hostas, daylilies, and ornamental grasses.

  • Encourages healthier, more vigorous plants
  • Helps control the size of mature clumps
  • Provides free plants to expand your garden or share with others​

Prepare for Common Pests

As the weather warms, insect pests such as aphids, slugs, and beetles begin to appear. Early preventative measures are important to keep damage minimal without resorting to heavy chemical use.​
