After a long winter, people with green thumbs are ready to put the gloves on and get to work on their gardens.
However, there are some things that you should wait a little longer to do, and some things you can get started on right away.
Co-owner of Grobe Nursery and Garden, Perry Grobe, tells 570 News some basic helpful tips for digging into your gardens this spring.
“They can certainly plant pansies right now, and as soon as the ground is diggable, they can plant almost any plant they can think of in terms of shrubs, and trees, or bushes, and so on.”
Not only is it a good idea to clean up the yard, but it is important to clean up and throw away any dead branches left from the storm that hit most in the area this past Christmas.
“The other thing that people are doing right now is planting. The season is late and the longer they put it off, the harder it may be to get things done in a timely manner. They should be considering what they’re going to do and make arrangements to get things ready for the garden. For example, they may want to get their fertilizers for the beds and fertilizers for the lawn and look at the shrubs that they’re looking to have, and so on.”
