Ask Burton: This week, a quick rundown on a favorite early spring flower. Q: I would like to plant tulips for a pretty show this spring. I’ve tried them before but my blooms were stunted and not all that showy. How can I do better?October 6, 2020
Ask Burton: This week, we’re talking the lawn again – and how to head off a problem before it becomes serious. Q: I have a St. Augustine lawn and I’m starting to see irregular brown spots in it; the runners are still mostly green, but the leaves of the grass are rotting off right at the base, against the runner. This happens almost every fall, and I’d like this problem to go away. What is this, and how do I stop it?September 24, 2020
Ask Burton: Q- I have an established Japanese maple which had its edges burned by the summer heat this year; also, several newly planted shrubs that also had small amounts of damage from drying out as well. I watered twice a week all summer; do I need to increase my watering now?September 16, 2020
