JANUARY GARDEN GUIDE

With a warm heart and warmer workwear, head into the garden with clippers in hand.


Many larger perennials need pruning in late winter; others may be damaged by weather. Tidy as best you can.


See the land’s barrenness as a blank canvas to help you plan spring plantings and any major landscape changes or installations.
