Let’s Get Ready to Rumble

Spring has sprung and warmer days are on the horizon.  Let’s get ready for flowers!  Here in zone 4 perennials are starting to make an appearance so you should lift and divide crowded plants at this time.  Prep your garden soil by adding a fresh layer of compost.  Be sure to cut back stalks on your perennials to make way for new foliage and if you grow ornamental grasses be sure to cut them back as well.  Get a head start on dahlias and cannas by planting them in containers now and transplant them into your garden on Mother’s Day.  You are invited to read my numerous posts regarding spring preparation https://zinniaboy.com/spring-into-action/ .

To assist you in your outdoor living endeavors I’ve added a new line of outdoor related products https://zinniaboy.com/shop/.  Our  list will continue to grow and we are always open to your suggestions. Please feel free to contact me anytime. Cheers
