Preparing for Spring Essential February Garden Tasks
February gardens yearn for Spring. The Short days of January get brighter every day until spring breaks. It is also our best month for snow, yet flowers bloom even in snow. You can feel it: plants' slow, sweet shift toward Spring.
February is ideal for the soil preparation of new flower beds and the vegetable garden. Turn manure and compost into beds along with Watters "Fruit & Veggie Food," gypsum, and bone meal. These garden additives increase the harvest and flavor. Check remaining flower beds for soil heaving and cover them with mulch.
