Episode 889
Hey, mountain gardeners, Ken Lain here! The end of the year doesn't mean the end of gardening! Here in the mountains, it's the perfect time to prepare your garden for a stunning comeback next spring. Think of it like tucking your garden in for a long winter's nap.
Start by cleaning up any fallen leaves and spent plants. This prevents diseases from overwintering in your garden. It's a bit like washing the sheets before you crawl into bed for a good night's sleep.
Next, plant those perennials and shrubs you've been eyeing. The cool soil temperatures allow roots to establish themselves before the summer heat hits. It's like giving them a good breakfast before a big day!
Don't forget to protect your plants from the cold with a cozy layer of mulch. Think of it as a warm blanket for your garden beds. And be sure to water any newly planted trees and shrubs – they need a good drink before their winter rest.
