Not sure what to prune now?   

    

It's time for you to do your spring pruning.

5 things you can prune now ~ 
  1. Evergreens - It's time to tidy them up.  Learn more.
  2. Fruit trees - proper pruning should be done every year.  It will:
    1. Keep the tree under control, so fruit is easy to reach
    2. Encourage less, but larger fruit
    3. Fruit will grow closer to the trunk, so limbs will not become weighted down and break.
    4. More fruit tree pruning tips.
  3. Summer blooming flowering shrubs such as butterfly bushes, potentilla, and hibiscus. Spring blooming shrubs, such as lilacs and forsythia should be pruned after they bloom.  Learn more.
  4. Shrub roses, such as Easy Elegance and Knock-out roses. Don't prune hybrid tea or grandiflora until you see the forsythia blooming in your area.
  5. Sun loving hydrangeas, such as Limelight. Remove the dead flower heads, cutting back to the first strong, healthy pair of buds, lower down the stem.  Wait to prune the shade loving hydrangea until May in our area.
     
Spring pruning will really tidy up your yard.   
 
 March is National Nutrition Month
National Nutrition Month  
You Can Grow Nutritious Vegetables

What better way to emphasize good nutrition than to focus on the many healthful vegetables and fruits you can grow in your own home garden. It's easy to get the recommended servings a day when you grow your own! The physical exercise you get with gardening makes it even better.

Homegrown vegetables are loaded with vitamins and minerals and are easy to grow. Now is a great time to start planning ahead. Starting vegetable and flower seeds indoors is a fun way to get your gardening "fix", while the weather is still too cold to be outdoors. Seed starting indoors takes a little care.

  
Healthy Eating 
If you prefer to have us do the work for you, we have started seeding the plants you'll need for a great garden. We'll take very good care of them until it's time to plant.

Gardening is a great activity for the whole family. It's a great way to get kids to eat more vegetables and fruit and teach them where our food comes from.
  
 
Visit the Garden Center at Pinehurst for all your gardening and seed starting needs.

Sponsored by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the campaign focuses attention on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits.
