In Texas, we’re already experiencing a smattering of 90 degree weather days. Our super-charged spring flowers are fading, making room for the summer perennials, stalwart annuals, and ever-present volunteer seedlings. April showers have passed, so what are our May flower bed chores?
Let your garden do your meal planning for you! That’s usually my practice, but I’m currently between seasons.
I was reacquainted with the word biophillia while listening to a gardening podcast several weeks ago.
April is the season to to sit back and enjoy the hard work you put in last Fall.
I’m learning not to sweat the dead-stuff in my garden! Every year, I fret that my flowering shrubs and perennials have been killed off by our crazy Texas weather! I say to myself, “this is the year that the ice storms are going to be the killers!”
If you didn’t get a chance to thin out and transplant your perennials in the Fall, the optimum time, do it now!
