In fact, many gardening enthusiasts typically cannot wait for the spring thaw so they can spend the next several months tending to their plants under the warm sun. But a gardener's work is never truly done, and the work to make gar- dens stun in the spring actually be- gins during the preceding fall. Preparing gardens for winter is an important step that can help home- owners ensure their gardens re- turn to full strength in the spring. The tasks necessary to prepare gardens for winter may depend on what homeowners are planting, but the following are some general maintenance suggestions that can keep gardens safe this winter. • Remove weeds and debris. Weeds and debris are unsightly and det- rimental to plant life in spring, but they also can be harmful in the win- ter. Weeds and debris left to linger in gardens through the winter pro- vide overwintering spots for insects and can contribute to disease. So it's imperative that weeds and de- bris are removed before the ground hardens in winter. Don't wait until the ground hardens, as that can make it hard to remove the roots of weeds, adversely affecting the gar- den as a result. • Prepare the soil. The Farmer's Almanac advises homeowners to gently till the soil in their gardens so they can expose any insects before they settle in for the winter. Once garden soil is exposed, add a layer of compost, leaves, aged ma- nure, and, if necessary, lime, gen- tly tilling it into the soil. According to the North Carolina Cooperative Extension, the only accurate way to determine if lawn or garden soil needs lime is to test it. Lime makes soil less acidic and reduces soil pH. Low soil pH makes it hard for cer- tain plants to grow, but acidic soil is ideal when growing blueberries. Test the soil for lime and amend it depending on what you hope to grow in the spring so it's ready to thrive when winter ends. • Remove dead or diseased plants. Dead or diseased plants should not be left in the garden through the winter. These plants can at- tract insects and are vulnerable to disease, which can make it hard for the garden to thrive in the spring. • Protect fruit trees. If you have fruit trees, install mouse guards around the base to prevent mice and voles from killing the trees over the winter. If left to their own devices over the winter, mice and voles may eat the bark of fruit trees, killing the trees as a result. The Farmer's Almanac notes that mouse guards made of fi ne mesh hardware cloth can effec- tively protect fruit trees from hungry mice and voles over the winter. A gardener's work is never done, and the work to create beautiful spring gardens begins in the fall.
