Maddie’s Plant of The Week – Rosemary Cones
Ask Burton: This week, we’re discussing how to deal with rascally rabbits! Q: I have planted a bed of pansies for the Fall and winter, and last year, the rabbits thought it was an all-you-can-eat buffet! How can I keep the flowers in my beds from becoming rabbit food?
Ask Burton: Q: I planted a nice bed of pansies after Thanksgiving, once my summer plantings had given up the ghost. But I’ve had them in the ground for six weeks now, and they barely seem like they’re growing! This always happens to me – my pansies don’t look great until March. Why is this happening, and how can I do better?
Ask Burton: Q: I have mud under my shade trees now instead of lawn. How do I get my grass to grow back? I water it and feed it, but it stays gone.
Ask Burton: Q: I watered heavily all season long to keep my new plants alive, and now my lawn and flowerbeds are infested with nutsedge. How do I kill it, and not my other plantings?
