Horticulturist Jennifer Brennan, with the Chalet Nursery in Wilmette, joined ABC7 Eyewitness Information dwell with her most effective spring gardening guidelines.
“The most critical detail right now is just buying up any debris,” she claimed. That consists of leaves, twigs, pine cones and seed pods.
You can also get your backyard completely ready for planting by introducing compost. Awesome season crops, like spring peas and collard greens, can be planted right before the frost-absolutely free date of May 15.
And if you’re antsy to include some colour to your backyard garden now, Brennan recommends primroses, violas and hellebores.
“This is my favourite viola, it can be termed etain,” Brennan reported. “It will come again every yr and it smells superb.”
But beware of the bunnies! Brennan recommends PlantSkydd Liquid Spray Repellent and Repels-All by Bonide Liquid animal repellent to keep rabbits from building a food out of your back garden.
