Radio Show Recap
Memorial Day Weekend is the signature time in NE Ohio to plant the veggie & herb garden, and Mother Nature is providing fantastic weather for it! This week, Angelo shared advice for prepping and planting the veggie garden. He also talks about what Memorial Day signals with lawn care, managing disease and pest issues, and fertilizing Hydrangeas to manage their color. PLUS, he answered caller questions like “Can I cut back my perennial Sedum so it doesn’t grow so tall and flop over”, and “What perennials are hardy enough to leave in a pot over winter”?
