Gardening Tips of the Month:
● DON'T CUT IT! When you cut back dead material on woody plants it stimulates the plant to put out new material. There is still some chance of frost so you want to wait to cut back freeze damaged plants until true spring has arrived. Now is also a good time to plan changes for the next year and start any needed seedlings.
Next meeting: Monday Feb 13th, Tricia Bradbury - Herbs people don't think of as herbs.
