APRIL GARDEN GUIDE

Can you smell it? Spring is here! Seize this time, before perennials leaf out and annuals go in, to lay drip irrigation lines and soaker hoses.


Prepare winter-weary lawns for the growing season—apply moss killers and fertilizer and overseed as needed.


Add flowers to beds and overstuff containers for a dramatic look in full bloom.
