End-of-Season Garden Cleanup

 

Jim and Martie are in the studio this week discussing all things cicadas. They also answer your questions about apple trees and suggest various perennials for your yard. It’s time to start the end-of-season garden cleanup, but be cautious when bringing outdoor plants back inside to avoid introducing pests to your houseplants. 

 

If you’ve got any questions for our panelists, please send us an email at yourgarden@gmail.com com, or you can find us on Facebook and Instagram.
