SPRINGFIELD AREA MASTER GARDENERS NEWS
Plants are funny things. You plant the seed or buy the plant and you water, fertilize, putting them in the best environment, you think, and still they can frustrate you so much.
They don't bloom when they should. They get infested with insects or some sort of funny looking red spots or they just won't grow at all. Be patient gardeners! It's too early for the hydrangeas to be popping out and the red spots can be diagnosed and properly treated. (Questions contact 402-444-7804 Douglas/Sarpy County Master Gardener Helpline) You can do this. I have faith in you.
Now, as far as our topic chosen from last week. Let's talk about the bush variety and/or patio variety of plants. These veggies are great for containers. I have done sweet one million tomatoes for years and snacking on them every morning. Make sure the container you choose is deep and wide enough for the plant. You can gently twist the stems according to growth or you can tie the stems up the trellis. Be careful of the fertilizer you use and make sure you water a little more often because pots can dry out faster.
This will be the last of the plant or garden prep topics due to the planting dates ending. So, we will talk about flowers next unless Connie gets another topic of interest.
And now, New Master Gardener's Adventure!
The Master Gardeners are starting a new adventure and we would like you all to join in.
