Garden Myths

 

  • I'll quell some popular garden myths including: evergreen needles making soil too acidic, removing tomato leaves, maple and oak leaves are bad for compost.
  • I'll answer gardener's questions regarding yellow hibiscus leaves, Johnny jump-ups and surprise lilies. 
  • The focus of my pest tip is squash vine borer. 
  • I finish with information on Bayer Advanced for Japanese beetle control on fruit trees, citrus and some vegetables.
