Winter Preparation

 

  • A safe haven for cannas, tuberous begonias, and dahlias is indoors protecting them from winter weather.
  • I'll discuss winter storage. I answer gardening questions about where to buy corn gluten and asters that have some browning.
  • Then I'll discuss gardening tips on how to control thrips.
  • I recommend the beautiful blooms of Pink Quill (Tillandsia cyanea) to brighten the winter months.
