Ask Burton: This week, a question involving the winter garden. Q: I had cabbages in my garden last winter, and they were covered in holes to the point that my plants looked like lace. I’d like this spring’s plantings to do better! What happened, and how do I head it off this year?February 8, 2022
Ask Burton: This week, a question we’ve been fielding about boxwoods. Q: I have boxwoods I planted after last February’s terrible weather. But now, I have dry yellow pieces on my boxwoods, and in odd places. Some tips have turned dry and yellow, and on others, entire limbs look withered. What’s going on?February 1, 2022
ASK BURTON: Q: I had a Chinese Pistache planted in my yard a few years back, and I have a question about how it colors for the fall. My neighbor has one in their yard and it gets great orange and reddish color, but mine has been unimpressive, turning yellow and orange but not much red color. Any idea why this is so different?November 23, 2021
